QF EK tieup questions

[ashleyn]

Apologies if I'm either in the wrong place or this has been covered before (I searched but couldn't find the answers)

I will soon be booking Per-Dxb-Cdg, Classic award in J using QFF points. Been looking on the QF site and the flights I want are there but they are all EK.
Q1. Is this normal, will there be any QF codeshares loaded and does it really matter anyway ? Assuming I book an EK flight, that's straight EK, no QF involvement, right ?
Q2. If the answer to Q1 is yes it's an EK flight then do I arrange chauffeur drive through EK ?
Q3. Finally for the 2 hr layover in DXB, as I'm on EK J to Cdg, I assume I go to an EK lounge in DXB ?

Thanks in advance.

No QF metal operating.

Doesnt matter if QF flight number or not as you wont earn any SC or anything.

If you did book QF im bot sure if you will get chauffeur drive either

So yes to Question 2 and 3
