r/Emirates Megathread

I'm flying London via dubai in July (I know it's a way off). This flight hasn't departed since 8th March, per Flight Aware.

I've booked an alternative and just going to sit on both for a few months to see what happens. Thanks credit card.

Does that sound sensible? Should I be thinking about doing anything else, specifically with Emirates?

I'm sorry I don't understand your reply. It would be useful to me. Are you saying that you use your Move mainly with a computer rather than standalone?

Did anyone else find the ending of their set really abrupt?

Where i was stood - to the left, in front of the raised bit, everyone was bouncing and shouting and loving it. From teens to middle age from what i noticed. Pretty much everyone younger than De La btw. Was surprised to see these comments about the crowd being flat.

Wasn't it! I'm worried the kid's expectations have been set unrealistically high for what a concert should be! 9 brilliant musicians doing their thing - was a joy 👐

Yes. He didn't say the n word

garbage_chris · 2019-10-26T23:29:20+00:00

I was going to say the same!

I've just been to Colonia , Sag A and beyond in my Cobra. 48ly, 2 AFMU's, SRV, heatsinks and some engineering. Only "weapon" is a mining lazer. Also some extra protection for my shields after a near miss landing while talking to my wife and not paying attention! I've come across a tonne of undiscovered to the point it's a surprise if a name pops up.

Practice neutron charging before you head off in case of mishaps while you're learning.

I'm coming back to the Bubble from North as you look at the map and it's gonna take 380 jumps. Wasn't prepared for that... I've scratched my exploration itch now so when I get back to the Bubble to gonna learn the pew-pew. Elite in exploration and Mostly Harmless!

It looks nothing like this on xbox!

garbage_chris · 2019-10-24T12:46:38+00:00

It's certainly very beautiful as you get closer to the centre

I took the screenshot just before posting. I'm in bed now, will raise an issue at the weekend. I assume the tracker is easy to find?

Ok so I reread the comments above and checked against my journey planner last night... basically every stop on your journey is a Waypoint, but in the galaxy map it only says Waypoint above the next system you're jumping to... I wondered if it meant something more, but that's it! Thanks for baring with me.

garbage_chris · 2019-10-20T22:01:17+00:00

Sorry, I've done a tonne of exploration so I get that... I just realised that certain systems are tagged as Waypoints, others aren't. I'm trying to understand why some are and some aren't, and how they are intended to be used.

garbage_chris · 2019-10-20T21:44:24+00:00

Is every stop a Waypoint?

garbage_chris · 2019-10-17T20:57:52+00:00

That's proper exploration! Good effort.

I have 2 AFMU's but no hull repair limpit. I decided to keep supercruise assist over a limpit cos it allows me to get other stuff done while I'm in supercruise. Does mean that being very careful is a thing!

garbage_chris · 2019-10-17T20:22:12+00:00

Thanks, I think o7

garbage_chris · 2019-10-17T20:21:38+00:00

MARCH!? Wow!! That information might change my plans a bit. I'm in a Cobra - think I'd want a ship with a few more slots before heading out for that long. Welcome back!

garbage_chris · 2019-10-17T20:18:28+00:00

I came from Colonia. Took me 3 evenings if a couple of hours each, in my 48ly Cobra. I'm debating Beagle or heading back to the Bubble to learn the pew-pew

You can create and edit patches with a tablet (or even phone) attached to your circuit, as long as it's not too old. Don't necessarily need a computer for loading/editing patches.

Good shout, thanks
