What services can I expect on an Emirates flight?
Refreshments on board
Refreshments are also offered free of charge for economy class passengers and there is usually a choice of 2-3 hot meals. Portions are tasty and filling.
Drinks, including alcoholic beverages, are available throughout the flight - don't be shy to ask and stick to the drinking regime on long-haul flights. Be careful with alcohol so you don't disturb fellow passengers.

Free Hotel - Dubai Connect
Emirates offers free accommodation during your transfer with Dubai Connect.
Dubai Connect must be booked at least 24 hours prior to arrival in Dubai.
The service applies to all passengers regardless of class of travel, subject to a minimum transfer duration.
To qualify for a free hotel, your flight must have a layover of between 8 and 26 hours. However, it must also be the fastest connection offered by the airline.
If there is an earlier flight that can be made, but you are on a later flight, then you will not be offered a free hotel. Similarly, it may be that the shortest connection between two destinations is, for example, 9 hours, but your flight has a connection time of 12 hours. Again, you will not be entitled to a hotel as you are not flying with the shortest possible connection.

Free bus to Abu Dhabi
If you're heading to Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, and you're an Emirates passenger, you can take advantage of free shuttle buses directly from Emirates upon arrival at Dubai Airport.
You don't need to book the bus in advance, but you do need to show your Emirates ticket on boarding. You can use the shuttle bus after arrival and before departure.
In Abu Dhabi, the bus stops outside the Emirates office (see map).
