Flying F. I've seen a few reviews that say if you are in F but standing at the J bar they will sneak the good stuff back and top you up discreetly...
I have reviewed some photographs and trip-reports for the EK A380 and it looks like some of them have had a refresh. The main tell-tale for me is the handheld control for the ICE System. One looks like an iPad and one is quite old and chunky....
Perhaps that is the only change?
The newer F fit-out has a better video screen (larger and higher resolution) plus a couple of cosmetic changes (moved the lamp and a bit extra bling... after all, with EK, too much bling is never enough!).

The new video screen has a much better resolution. Was very impressed with the quality while watching Ant Man at Xmas.Also the old touch screen hand controller is very heavy and clunky (and often unreliable). The new ones are smaller more like an ipad. There are also a different configuration of buttons for seat movement, door closure and privacy screen (middle seats).You can usually find the aircraft ID number then lookup the build date.The newer F fit-out has a better video screen (larger and higher resolution) plus a couple of cosmetic changes (moved the lamp and a bit extra bling... after all, with EK, too much bling is never enough!).Old fit-out:View attachment 67127New fit-out:View attachment 67128

Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?
Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.
Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.
Without taking it personally I think you need to lower your expectations a bit. EK F is great and and all that , but EK crew can be really hit and miss, and rather robotic (not like SQ though).
Do you think this may be due to the multilingual multicultural crew.
