  1. If your a person that checks in early you might find a cheaper upgrade offer at the check-in desk https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/emirates-skywards/2051843-email-upgrade-offer-benefits.html
  2. So it looks like everyone in Economy has been sent the same email at the end of the day it is easier for Emirates to sell any Economy seats they get from upgrades Its catch 22 if there is plenty of empty seats in business because no one is upgrading I would expect the upgrade offers to improve price wise
  3. what you are being offered is a seat and cabin experience only It may be the case that economy is full or overbooked and everyone in economy has been sent the same email what you should do is clear any Emirates cookies from your computer and see what the business class fares are from scratch , also you can see if economy is full booked or not
  4. Indonesia will need to exercise patience for another 18 months to ascertain whether global electric car giant Tesla Inc. will initiate investments in the nation, Chief Investment Minister Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said on Monday. https://jakartaglobe.id/business/luhut-fails-to-get-immediate-investment-pledge-from-musk I can't see Tesla making any announcement prior to purchasing land as any prior announcements only pushes land prices up

  7. Look at the countries that didn't sign up to the 1948 Declaration of Human Rights. Eight abstained: six communist nations, led by the Soviet Union, plus South Africa and Saudi Arabia. Pakistan, which signed the declaration, disagreed and critiqued the Saudi position, as did Turkey, a predominantly Muslim nation. Honduras and Yemen, both members of the U.N., failed to either vote or abstain. https://www.politico.com/story/2015/12/united-nations-adopts-universal-declaration-of-human-rights-dec-10-1948-216489#:~:text=Eight abstained%3A six communist nations,to either vote or abstain.

  11. If you check yougov they don't state how there poll was taken they just state sample size YouGov Survey Results Sample Size: 2151 adults in GB Fieldwork: 13th - 14th July 2023 No evidence if poll was online or offline https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/articles-reports/2023/07/18/britons-would-vote-rejoin-eu I personally believe if the 1 million Scots living outside of Scotland were allowed to vote in the independence referendum the majority vote would have been for Scottish independence but as we all know they were denied a vote
  12. Your statement remains unknown until another eu referendum is held what we have seen so far is a series of online polls , so all the people that don't have internet access or don't take part in online polls there views are unknown

  16. It should be said there was many unhappy Tesla owners in China In January 2023 Some Tesla dealership hinted that the cars would increase in price as a result of the Chinese subsidy programme ending in December 2022 and owners were advised don't wait buy now.
