Emirates 10% off sales

[Dalescott]

Emirates have a 10% off till the 9 of January try UK for $ 13789 for 2 people. But will it be the same price out of Melbourne when the start using the A380 after October. That is if they use the A380 into Melbourne, they had to fight very hard to get it here, in fact they tried to take it off Sydney. They wanted to use it on the Asian run, but they are having low loadings out of Melbourne in J. EK believe that the A380 will lift the loading.

PS My source is cast iron on the Loading

With their new Dublin destination coming up in Jan I wonder if there will be a bit of a war between Eithad and Emirates in J ??? heres hoping !!

Who would you fly with? And why!

Who would you fly with? And why!

For me the jury is still out on EY. I would need to try their newer J product to be certain but some of their A346 are looking very tired already. Staff are 50/50. Some are superb, some are just plane rude.

Being from PER my first choice now would be EK as it is one stop to DUB. Only down side is no A380. It's a 777 from PER-DBX and an A332 from DBX to DUB.

EY do have a very nice Pearl Business Lounge in Dublin though.

I haven't flown either so I will be relying on others who have once the flight prices are announced

It won't let me book a PER-DBX-DUB in J. Keeps diverting to the sale home page.

Then I spotted this in the T&C's:

* 10% discount applies to the base fare only (excluding taxes and fees) and only applies to online bookings that include a valid Skywards membership number. Not applicable for itineraries starting in Australia.
