I'm travelling Manchester - Dubai economy in 10 days time and managed to book seat 68K (seat missing in front) on the A380 for the outward flight.

No leg room seats available on the journey back 2 days later but I believe you can check in at the airport 24 hours in advance of your flight, a couple of questions.

1) Where are the desks for early check in? is it in the terminal as I have read a few things but not really clear.
2) In the past with Emirates I have managed to book the emergency exit seats at the airport but will this still be available to do about 14 hours before the flight at the early check in desk.

Any experience or advice welcome

Thanks
