Ticket validation dates....
HELP !!!!!!!! I have just booked the return leg of a journey, BOM-DXB-LHR in F class, leaving EK501 at 04:30am from BOM 3rd September. I changed the date, orignally set for 28th August via the EK customer service center.
I have just printed off the ticket and noticed that the ticket is NOT valid after 2nd September!
n The revised ticket clearly states 3rd September departure...
Will i be able to fly? Is this the mistake of EK?? Will i be asked to purchase a new ticket? There were no date change penelties.
It is way more convienient for me to fly on the 3rd.. I would not really like to change it...
Advice please...............................

You should have no problem whatsoever. I have done severeal changes on these kind of tickets as long its within the 1 yr validity of the ticket you can change it as many times as you like. Hope this helps

It is the first change i have made, but it falls one day over the valid date, yet the ticket was still issued....

Maybe the expiry date is based on GMT in which case it is still the 2nd of Sept when flight is scheduled to depart from Bombay on 3rd?
