If I don't show up I have to pay 600 EUR noshow fee. But, can I cancel the ticket while on my "stopover" in Dubai? I'll lose the rest of the fare, but it's still cheaper than a one way. Or will EK "fine" me like LH does?

Thanks
Go to BKK for a weekend!

I don't think they will care if you drop the final DXB-BRU leg. I've had to drop the last leg a few times, with no issues.
