Thank you everyone for your replies, very helpful.
So, we will have tests done as required for DXB.
Meeting the requirement to enter Netherlands... do you not have to quarantine on entrance? If so, do I not need to provide some sort of address where "I will quarantine"?

No - one of the categories for exemption is being in NL for less than 12hrs - complete the declaration accordingly. No one is going to look at it likely - BA may check you've got a correct looking piece of paper and then you won't see any officials in NL at all!

Not by my reading - you can enter NL for up to 12hrs as long as you've completed the declaration (with exemption noted) and have a ticket to leave within 12hrs

Fortunately, despite the different carriers and different alliances the agent was persuaded to construct a LCY-AMS-IST-MLE itinerary in the system from the two separate bookings so that I 'magically' became a transit passenger in the eyes of the KLM and/or the Dutch authorities.
