Emirates has launched a new daily flight from Dubai to Mexico City, and 8Days.sg was recently invited on the inaugural flight. Don’t get me wrong — Mexico City is definitely bucket list-worthy. But in this case, it’s as much about the journey as it is the destination. After all, I'd be flying 30 hours in total from Singapore to Dubai and then Dubai to Mexico City (with a quick stop in Barcelona).
My adventure pretty much begins before I even arrive at the airport. The moment I get out of the lift at my block, I spot a gleaming Mercedes waiting to take me to the airport. Emirates offers complimentary chauffeur services to take its Business Class passengers to and from airports around the world (it’s best to book at least a day ahead of time). It’s a luxury, and I’m not just referring to the car— not having to fret about surge prices and late private car hires is bliss. It’s a great start to the journey.
