Please help- issue with date change
Hi Everyone,
I am having trouble changing my return date from mauritus to London Gatwick.
I booked a fully flex ticket and was under the impression that date changes are possible subject to seat availability. (See below)
I rang emirates in mauritus and was told that I booked a flex in different class of seats and therefore any changes for an economy seat will cost me £300.
Surely this cannot be right? How is this fair? The reason i ever booked flex was for the miles but also due to the fact that I was always under the impression that date changes cost the usual £75.
I really need to change my date for tonight or tomorrow, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
What is a ‘Skywards Saver’ fare?
A 'Skywards Saver' fare is any Emirates fare with either:
(a) eligibility restrictions (such as students; seniors; companions; etc)
(b) a limited sales period.(''must purchase by'' date)
(c) limited seat availability and restrictive conditions (such as change fees; min/max stay; flight restrictions or advance purchase)
All fares sold by other airlines, partly flown on Emirates, also fall into this category.
What are the earning fare types?
What is a ‘Skywards Flex’ fare?
A Skywards Flex fare is any Emirates fare with none of the above restrictions, i.e. no eligibility or purchase restrictions.
