In two weeks or so I will be flying via DXB with 15h night stopover. I'm booked in Business Saver class. Today in Manage My Reservation page I've spotted the Dubai Connect offer, which I promptly booked. It is all green, displaying quite confirming "collect voucher" info.
The problem is, that my connection should not be eligible for DC, as there is an earlier flight (with 4h connection) available. I was prepared to book something cheap in Deira for the purpose of this stopover, however the DC option is tempting.
The question is - will this DC invitation hold water when confronted with check-in agent armed with terms-and-conditions? How probable is that I'll in fact receive this voucher?
Hi Aclan and welcome to the EK Forum.
The agents at the airport won't question the system or try to figure out if there is an earlier flight deeming you ineligible. Once you are checked-in, the hotel voucher will print along with the BPs.
If you remain uneasy, book your designated property but on a cancellable rate as a backup.
