Arabian airpass
Heading to Lagos in December (HAM-DXB-LOS) and have a meeting in Cairo, so was considering to take a stop over in DXB and buy a DXB-CAI-DXB roundtrip with two coupons on the arabian airpass ($300 for business class per way).
The terms http://www.emirates.com/english/dest...onditions.aspx state that the price is + tax. A dummy booking in business class seems to show a fare of 185 AED so roughly $50 - is this the tax I will need to pay?
Do these fares earn skywards miles?

2. You cannot buy the airpasses in the Middle East.
3. You have to use the Arabian Airpass tickets before you fly the final leg of the ticket. Just fell foul of this one, i used the wrong leg of a back to back ticket and lost 3 return legs. Have to wait till i go back to BOM to get a refund.
4. Not sure how many miles the airpasses will earn under the new Skywards rules. At the moment you get the full complement of miles and bonus miles.
