I have some trouble understanding the conditions of a ticket a friend bought:
- SAVER ticket on both legs (not refundable, not changeable)
- BRU > HAN > BRU

Now, my friend wants to stay in DXB on his return flight, willing to pay a one-way ticket to BRU a few days later. The idea is that we check in in HAN and ask luggage to be delivered in DXB only.

However... I understand if we just leave the airport in DXB and "forget" about the connecting flight to BRU, the no-show fee will be applicable. My ticket (DXB > HAN > DXB) clearly states a no show fee of 600 AED. My friend's ticket mentions that the ticket is not refundable in case of no-show but doesn't say anything about no show fees...

So, if we check in HAN only to DXB and we call EK upon arrival in EK and inform them my friend will miss his connection, will they proactively cancel the DXB-BRU flight thus avoiding the no show fee?
