Travelling GLA-DXB-PER
Hi, I'm travelling from Gla-Dxb on 6th Feb arriving Dubai 00.30 7th Feb and I'm looking for lounge access.
I've a 10hr stopover, so somewhere to relax would be appreciated.
Can anyone help?

Hi, I tried this before I bought the flight and I was told that only certain fare classes qualify.
Apparently my fare class doesn't qualify although it may be worth another phone call.
I can always buy lounge access elsewhere for 5 hrs although it would be better to use the airline lounge.
It's a bit of a pain as I have an 18 hour stopover on the return leg. That will definately be a hotel.

I still dont understand the different fare classes, I thought economy was economy!
If you dont mind a snorer I'll share my room for a price LOL
Still think its worth a phone call, nothing to lose.

I might take you up on the room sharing but you would have to pay me if you snore.

There is no mention of any distinction between fare classes on that page.
On the global site there is a list of applicable fare classes.

I'm not sure if one takes precedence over the other but it would be worth stating your case if you're destination is on the first list.
If you have a Diners Club or Premium Mastercard they can also be used to gain lounge entry.

For UK departures there is a list of destinations where the hotel room will be available. These are from NCL and GLA only and can be seen here:

The first list doesn't have my final destination (Perth) on it. Does anyone know how to tell from my eticket what type economy ticket I have?
I've sent an email to them, so I'll wait and see what the reply is.

However, I don't think it will matter as you have chosen the long stopover (EK424) over the shorter one (EK420). As it's your choice to take the stopover and there is a flight within the 8 hour limit you are not entitled to the room.
