I am sure i have read somewhere that Emirates is to pay for hotel accomodation when transit time is more than 6 hours when flying in C + F. I think it was on the back of the voucher i received last when i was offered a night on EK in DXB because of a bad connection.

However it seems as if these "rules" interpreted differently from time to time.

Early march i have a CAI-DXB-ZRH with a 8 hour layover in DXB. However both EK london and Dubai seem to know nothing about the stpc. Tomorrow i will call EK Cairo - but just wanted to know if anybody is aware of the official EK rules?

Can these been seen in a CRS? or how can i find the facts about this.
