I'll be leaving Dubai on the 25th or so for the UK. After spending my Xmas break there, I'll return to Cairo, not Dubai. I'm not going from Dubai to Cairo via LHR.
OS's prices are $860 or so. As for trying AZ or OA...well since I'm travelling with luggage I don't want to take the rise and prices/itineraries aren't logical anyway so I'm ruling them out. OT-my father was once transiting in ATH on OA and during the transit he somehow found himself outside the airport. AZ and OA are a running joke in the family (any family, probably). However, SU's asking for $910 for the same itinerary (DXB-LON-CAI)-surely the superior product and the MOW experience is worth the difference?
