Something that crossed my mind, I wonder if you can now add a stopover by postponing the DXB-LHR flight by a day or two, but remaining in the upgraded class of service, paying just the change fee and fare difference (of which ideally there would be none). I presume there would need to be upgrade availability on the postponed flight, too, so that you stay in the same fare bucket...
