Gents: I just bought my ticket to SA and return on Emirates. When the email ticket arrived it stated seats are not assigned until check in. Is this correct? I prefer asile seats on my flights, most so on the long ones. What say you fellas. How can one get aisle seating on Emirates?

Fly a-380 Emirates is great airline but the seats are narrow. My shoulders stick out. Hope you have an empty middle seat. Window on a-380is more comfortable for me as I lean on the side. Mike | |||

I have no idea why your flying to Africa. You like all these guns from the Stone Age, so I thought you might enjoy sailing to Africa! You won’t need to worry about seating arrangements | |||

Well, there would be the choice of early or late dinner seating whilst afloat. Mike ______________ DSC DRSS (again) SCI Life NRA Life Sables Life Mzuri IPHA "To be a Marine is enough." | |||

But which cabin is best for an extended ocean voyage???? Actually, the idea of a ship trip, before a hunt is very interesting....... Master of Boats, Slayer of Beasts, Charmer of the fair sex, ...... and sometimes changer of the diaper..... | |||

Saeed: I just bought a old .300 Weatherby. A cool rifle with a serial number <300. I also ordered a funny looking round tube glass sight for it (Zeiss 3-15x Conquest). The reason I'm flying is I want to be sure to make it to Mark Sullivan's camp so I can hunt, return, and post a report on AR, and read your countless hate posts. But, you've got to give me credit. I'm flying the best airline in the world: Emirates! Cheers, mate.

Yes Cal. There is no question EMIRATES is the best right now. Sadly, you have picked a self glorifying idiot to hunt with! Why don’t you pick a decent, real, honest, professional hunter to hunt with? Not someone whose only care in this world is glorifying himself | |||

Hi Saeed: Honestly and without insults or emotion, I like Mark and want to share a camp with him. He is a kind, and honest gent and we enjoy the same rifles. I see beyond the Mark that is used to market hunts and videos. When I post my hunt report here, the games will begin.

There is only one worm in this conversation. And his name is Mark Sullivan! And he only has himself to blame, for portraying himself in such stupid, idiotic manner just to appeal to like minded indiots who buy his films! | |||

If he is hunting with Mark Sullivan, the last advert posted here by his agent was for an ear tagged buffalo that was raised as a pet! | |||

Charlie: Buffalo and some plains game if time allows. Saeed: If you get this upset at the simple mention of a hunt, you will get really twisted when I pen my hunt report. And, just to clarify, my buff is not ear tagged, but is kept chained in a barn. He will also be drugged to calm him down but nut shot to wake him up just before I aim and Mark kills him. The truth is out. Happy now?

Back to the thread for a sec, Steve at TWG said I could pay a little for a little more leg room and I did. Hope it pans out. Will try to upgrade once I check in. | |||

Just returned from a trip to Uganda flying Emirates. We paid a bit extra to get seats a little further forward in the aircraft. We were just behind business class, and had adequate leg room and aisle seats. I would say we had at least as much room as I had on any other international flight I have been on. One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know. - Groucho Marx | |||

Just curious, what is the cost of the upgrade? Is it like Delta's comfort class?

I don't know Cal but I was told to ask to upgrade when checking in. I'm going to budget $1,000 in case. I was told, by a friend, that he upgraded for $500 but one never knows. | |||

Thanks for the tip on upgrades. I’ll budget for it when I go to Zim in August. ____________________________________________ "Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life." Terry Pratchett. | |||

If you sign up for the Emirates Skywards program, they emails infrequently with "specials", some of which are really good (although not so many in the past year or so), we've bought business class seats at really, really good prices in the past from DFW to Joburg and DFW to Hararre.

With all the trips over why are you flying coach. They have a great Business Class. The only way to fly and never worry who is sitting next to you. Like you I use to fight to get aisle seats but no more. | |||
