Nope, this is a full price F fare booked on the EK website! I'll try phoning the Dubai office and see what they say. I asked about the stopover packages, but the agent didn't really know what I was on about (this was the Manchester office).
Just found the prices of the Airport hotel on the website, they're bloody outrageous!!!
'Deluxe single room costs as per the time slot are US $ 51/hour from 8:00 pm - 3:00am and US $ 41/hour from 4:00 am - 7:00 pm while Double rooms costs as per the time slot are US $ 62/hour from 8:00 pm - 3:00am and US $ 52/hour from 4:00 am - 7:00 pm.'
