I was trying to quote this bit:

>Someone else on this site reported similar troubles. My card was totally without holds, and the card company always reported no transaction AT ALL from Emirates, but Emirates always said my card was denied.

This is what happened to me yesterday. The EK website said that my credit card was declined, but it did not take me to the Verified by Visa page first.

I notice that for flights originating or terminating in the US, you can make a booking on the website without paying. They will hold the fare for 24 hours. Then you can call the call centre.
