Emirates Holidays and Deposits

Hi all,

I am very new to EK and their funny ways, so be gentle...

Pricing up, speculatively, LHR-AUH-HKG and return with 3 nights in HKG, in F, April 2018. Total price for one person was £3961. The deposit required was £3,663.

What gives? Is this a glitch or is this normal?

Probably should be payment in full

But Emirates does advertise they allow deposits "from £100". Now, I don't expect to be able to secure long haul F plus a 5* hotel for £100, but I'm surprised with the results.

Maybe the fact you're flying via one of their competitor's hub airports that isn't serviced by EK is causing the glitch

I meant DXB! Oops.
