We have a baby also who I need to ticket as a lap infant. My question is, can I add the baby to my sister's reservation to pay a lower ticket cost (10% of the cash fare, much less Y than F of course), so baby would be ticketed in Y or J depending on upgrade availability, and then bring the baby into the first class cabin with me and my wife? Anyone have insight into how accommodating Emirates might be with this?
no chance you are bringing a baby into F without an F ticket, just pay the 10%.
In F you can move to J and the lounge or even visit y if you like but movement upward won’t generally be permitted at all. I’ve seen a y pax go to the bar for a quick drink but that’s it.
