Leg room is the worst in Emirates for the money spent on tickets...Ticket rates have almost doubled.Leg room should be improved. Food cafeteria is right next to toilets which is unhygienic. The constant opening of toilet doors is irritating for folks seated next to the toilets ( so called the extra leg room nonsense). The air hostess used to provide a small bottle of wine previously. But now they provide half glass of wine. The food trays are distributed unevenly between aisles..some people finish their food and stretch their seats when the rows behind them are being served food...how is it fair?? The attendant button takes forever to get the hostess to attend onto you.... Bathrooms need more positive pressure to get the smell out of the cabin. Soap dispenser in Bathroom was not refilled. Air hostesses (newbies) were found to be noisy during services-too much talking to coordinate between each other.. I usually love Emirates and have always preferred to travel in Emirates...but the leg room for economy class must be improved for a better flying experience...
