    It was time to try the Emirates First Class B777-200 service after today visit to First Class Lounge (review here) and earlier A380 flights (review here and here). While the plane board on time and pushed but early that push back was only about 5 metres and we then sat at the gate for around 25 minutes which is why we ended up having a late arrival in Nairobi.
