Thanks for ur detail replies..

My company policy is the lowest ticket for a route .. so if they get saver tickets they will take it unfortunately , so I should also look at this possibilty also..Is there anz way to find which eco classes fall in saver tickets ??

So u saying that for award redemptions, EK does not charge fuel surchage which is a real big component ?? ^ This is wht I missed ..

Any other points which differentiates EK from M&M..

I am new to EK and hence need advise

Thanks
Abhi
