Anyone else in Y or PE see chauffeur drive as an option for DXB flight?

[Stoopidsteve]

I have a BNE-MEL-DXB-LHR-DXB-BNE in May, booked as O class. When I look at my booking there's the "customise your journey" button, which when clicked gives me the option for chauffeur drive for the BNE-Mel flight but not for arrival back in BNE). So I book it. Email confirmation. All seems OK.

Thing is, I'm booked O class. The usual booking for chauffeur drive appears to be to call the 1300 number: Chauffeur Drive | Qantas. I've not seen the link from "my booking" to book chauffeur on any other flight, or in any of my other bookings for the year so far (May-SIN, Aug-LAX, Sep-BKK). Is it just available because it's the LHR via DXB route?

I'm also assuming a big bill for the chauffeur when I get the pick up seeing as it's not a First or Business booking? (or am I dreaming that it presages a complimentary op-up to J....nah, that would be really stoopid wishful thinking)

Can anyone else with booking in economy or PE see this option on a Europe via DXB flight?

(posted this in chauffeur drive thread but no responses).

Interesting, just tried it myself for a flight in 2 weeks time to London, routing CBR-MEL-DXB-LHR/LGW-DXB-BKK-SYD-CBR and it is giving me the option to book the car in Canberra both in and out-bound but not in London. All my international sectors are in economy in either O class or Q class.

By all rights I shouldn't be 'entitled' to any car.

Out of interest I saw the link to customise a few weeks ago and when I clicked it said something along the lines that I had no eligible flights booked. It is telling me I am not eligible for Dubai Connect, what ever that is.
