Why this airline seat costs AU$21,000!

The flight from São Paulo to Dubai can take up to 15 hours and I chose to do it on Emirates in First Class, the very best class! So what do you get for your dollars when you choose Emirates First Class? A dream trip that's for sure. And of course, if you book a return fare the cost of each leg reduces but if you wanted to travel in a couple of days time, one way, you'd be faced with this price so come with me on my journey and see why this airline seat costs $30,000.

Pro tip for Middle East or specifically UAE: use Emirates Chauffer service, and order rent a car DELIVERY to your hotel. That way, zero waiting time and you could have enjoyed an S class transfer for those 130 or so kilometers from DXB to Yas Island.

It is not mandatory to tip in Dubai, but it is customary to do so. In Dubai, employees from Asian countries such as India, Pakistan and other surrounding countries are used in many ways. Although wages in Dubai are at a normal level, these employees often work for the rest of the family in the country in question. Tipping in Dubai is therefore often valued more than in an average Western country.

@@SirSilverFox What an ignorant comment. There are much better ways to "kick it with the rich and famous" than being an F1 photographer. He works his butt off at the track and away from it. Photographer accreditation isn't something you pay your way into either. Assailing his work to boot just makes you sound bitter and jealous. Pro tip: People who are well off don't throw money around or pay any more than they have to for something.

Apple AirTag is probably one of the best inventions ever. You can check and cross-check the whereabouts of pretty much anything and everything. I think I have now about 14 active. And it came to the rescue multiple times so far.

@Rob2 Жыл бұрын

I expect that their usage will be limited more and more. It may seem like a nifty idea but more and more they are abused for nefarious purposes. Probably Apple will be forced to limit or completely disable their functionality in countries where privacy is valued.
