How particular is Emirates about this? I am booking 1 ticket for my wife using my card. I am travelling with her too but my ticket will be booked (on the same flight) by the travel agent in office. Am I covered.
Thanks & Cheers

They usually don't ask for the card used at check in, but it has happened on rare occasions, and this is only while departing from India. Since you will be checking in together I'm sue you'll be fine because the T&C's only state that it must be presented at check in. Also, does the EK website allow you to put in someone elses name for the card to be used? Because it usually it has a scroll down list of pax on th itin and only their name can be used for the payment. It most probably should work well.
