i understand that it’s available in Manage My Booking but that is after I make payment. Any idea if the system indicate if this particular itinerary allows Dubai Connect before making payment? This is the tricky part.

I read the T&Cs and understand, there’s 2 criteria
1. for 1st/biz is >6hrs <26hrs and PE/E >10hrs<26hrs and
2. connecting departure to the destination for that day to must be the earliest flight. Example upon arrival at DXB there’s a flight at 1600hrs to X, but chose to take next available flight at 1800hrs to X. This does not qualify. But if take the 1600hrs flight and connecting time from arrival to departure is more then or less then the requirement then I will be eligible.

this is what i understand.
