First stage of our travel to New Zealand. A 7 hour flight on an Airbus to Dubai from LGW. At Gatwick we had breakfast at Comptoir Libanais then a swift one at Wetherspoons. Bought a few snacks for the flights and some neck pillows.

Emirates entertainment – ICE – isn’t half bad… but I can’t remember all the films I saw on both flights, only that I started watching one on the Airbus but it wasn’t on the play list on the 777. It was Palm Beach; which we visited just over a month later.
