Made our way to the B gates where our flight was departing from. The flight was initially supposed to be on a 777 with QSuites but a few months before departure, there was a plane swap to an A330. An hour before the flight, I got a notification that it was switched to a B787.

Surprised to see the Adient Ascent seat. Comfy for a one hour flight - not sure how comfortable it would be for a medium or long haul flight.

Was offered a choice of OJ, mint/lime juice or water as a PDB.
Another crew member came by offering arabic coffee. My meal choice was also taken - it was a choice between a camel wrap or a paneer wrap.

The captain came on with his usual introduction and announced that we would be delayed by another 30+ minutes as we had to wait for passengers from the inbound Paris flight.
Pushback.

This is how the flight went.
Plane went up.
Meal was served 15 minutes after take off - went with the camel wrap, tasted like chicken.
Halfway through the meal, the captain came on to announce we had begun our descent. :D
Taxi to Terminal 1 gate at DXB.
Off the plane to immigration.
1. Doha Airport is a dream.
2. The 787-9 with the new Adient Ascent seats is good and comfortable. How would it fare on long haul trips is anyone's guess but I think this is meant for short to medium flights.
3. Meal was great for such a short flight.
4. Dubai Airport T1 is ok; it was a long walk/transfer from the gate to immigration. On top of that, my passport didnt work through the egates even though I was registered. Took another 15 minutes go through the regular line to get processed.
