The shortest total trip with the transfer to QF10 seems the best option. 8408 has a stop and 8406 will leave you an overnight transit of 10:20mins. There's no time to do anything.
Unless you're really eager to break up your trip, I'd go option 1.
In Y? Option 1 for the shortest time and the QF metal.
If it was J I'd choose EK A380s all the way.
And yes Dubai connect is only an option when you are booked on the first available flight.
So it isn't in play here.
With the last option, add sleeping in the airport hotel AUD250 or so. Staying in a hotel in DXB not much cheaper, and less sleep time after immigration. I vote for option 1.
Cheers skip
Exactly.
Y on EK in their A380s is sardine territory.
Sorry not sardines, " high density economy".
The cabin crew hate it because they have to serve so many PAX.
