[QUOTE=swallowsrest;24354642]Be warned people. Be very careful if you look to book with ebookers or Emirates.

They offer cheap tickets because they hide the fact that they are NON refundable and if you need to make a change due to unforeseen circumstances they make a hefty and i mean hefty charge!

My example:-

Cost of return flight to Bangkok from Birmingham £496. Good eh? Family issue arises (not covered by insurance) and I need to come home 4 days earlier - £386 to change one leg home. If I cancel £86 refund! Change the outgoing leg instead and its £455......... Cheaper to cancel and book a new flight with Evair out of Heathrow.

Ebookers blame Emirates. Emirates customer services do not want to know!

You need to understand the pitfalls of booking with ebookers and Emirates. fore warned is fore armed.

I am told by the "know it all's" on this forum "what did I exepect" and "I'm stupid". Well easy for them to say when they understand the%2
