The interior design of the latest generation EK aircraft only focused on solo travellers. When travelling as a couple you can not call your seat very cosy with all the plastic around you.
When you travel as a couple, EK has only a few dedicated seats E & F available on the A 380.

We flew on one of the newer machines with the I-pad style seat/ICE controller, which needed brutal force to be removed from its craddle.

The meal service was extremely rushed and 2,5hrs into the flight (of 7hrs) the service was over and the lights turned low. At that time the party started in the pantry.
Pre-dinner drinks were cleared half withour asking when the tray tables were prepared. Wine intended for the starter were served at the time the starter was cleared! Also a 2nd cup of coffee was not an option.

Still I like the noisy and powerful take-off of a heavily loaded 777!
