To be honest I now hate the nonstop 12 hour flights and prefer the ones that go via the Gulf :-)

Last few trips booked through bridgetheworld.com Recommended.

I took the same flight as you landofsmiles in March and agree the stopover is a welcome relief to stretch the legs. Unfortunately the return trip has a far longer stopover and its a pain to wait in Abu Dhabi Airport for too long.
I stayed two days to avoid the long delay and was out drinking beer instead of waiting in the airport
