Thanks, I'll make sure to register my EK account with Amex. I do have an Amex Explorer card, but it's link to my Ascent Premium account (not Gateway Points). I understand that it's 4 MR points to 3 Skyward points, but there seems to be a potential clause if I transfer 1:1 to Qantas, I can then transfer to Emirates? Not too sure of the language, as some previous research I did indicated I couldn't transfer from Qantas to Emirates.
