- - Now shortly, we will have to board the aircraft 737 MAX 8 flagship aircraft flydubai fly onto Dar es Salaam back to Dubai Terminal Two. Even though it's been a very short stop in Kilimanjaro, it will be very apparent how important this route is to the airline and particularly with code-share partner Emirates. There will now be greater emphasis on enhancing connectivity to points like Kilimanjaro, which it's actually, this is the first UAE airline have serve this beautiful parts of the world. And there are going to be other future developments. Quick note on the seating: the two seats have been removed from the normal 737 Max 8 ten seats, and I was lucky enough to fly on the central second row, the so-called throne seats, the single seats. Very comfortable. I would thoroughly recommend 2B and 2E, if you get the chance. You do have space to put your laptop around and spread out and you have the privacy of the back elevated designed walls that makes it additionally attractive. The economy section also has been changed It has new seating for headrests, which will be appreciated again for those on the long flights. And look out for the 737 Max 8, which will be deployed on Moscow, Prague, Bucharest, Kiev, and other routes in the months to come. Well, that's the end of an 18-hour day trip to Tanzania. Got to see Kilamanjaro, the FlyDubai, 737 Max Aircraft. The fact that I actually still on two pins and don't feel too bad, I think, is a reflection of the quality of the product. It's an excellent business class, and I think it will do very well. Read my review in the magazine, and look out for the video.
