Thanks for looking that up for me. I will wait a bit before booking to see if the new EK online booking system is up by, say, the end of September.

On another note, I have usually found that when booking over the phone with EK I get the same fare as online. I had to do a booking over the phone recently when for some reason the website would not accept my AMEX card; the agent on the phone processed it at exactly the same fare.
