Does anyone think I have reason to be concerned about this? I've got seaplane transfers and hotel reservations that I can't afford to get screwed up because of this.

Dont worry about it. I am in MLE today and there is another crazzy flight number operating tiday of EK3660 which was an EK flight- there must be some internal reasoning --

Seen this also on days that the DXB-MRU flight operated with a 330 the flight number was 3701/3702 on those days instead of just the 701/702 on the days with the 777 --
