EK417 SYD - DXB
(2:50hr connection time)
EK027 DXB - GLA
It was obviously our mistake not choosing EK413 for the Dubai leg but I contacted Emirates help desk about moving the SYD-DXB booking to EK413 so we don't need to change planes, hassle of security etc and they said it would cost £235 per person.
413 lands in Dubai 45 mins after 417, so reduced connection time for the Glasgow flight.
Is 90 mins enough time for the connection in Sydney?
Yes. Will stay airside with a security check international arrivals to international departures. No need to process AU immigration
Check the conditions for an AU transit. Depends on the passport you hold.
