Emirates High street
Just a Gripe!!! We have 30,000 Miles to spend and we were looking at watches for around 28,000 Miles. Seen one and priced it up on the web at £40. what gets me is the fact that you still end up with a Bill for £15 in Tax!!!
Cant believe that when using miles, you still have to pay the tax.

Could anyone here enlighten me as to why anyone spends their miles on Emirates High Street? The prices and mileage needed are ridiculously high IMHO, and they also charge a lot for delivery. I could understand if people have under the 10000 miles needed for the lowest upgrade, but when i checked there was nothing much priced at that level anyway. If I recall, the tax plus delivery charge came to more than the product would cost in a shop anyway!
Do Emirates make a big profit from the High Street? If so, who are their target customers?
