I ve an upcoming booking in J/F next month KUL-DXB-MAN with a 9 hr layover, wanted to max my time in the F lounge haha
When i made the initial booking, they were offering the dubai connect service on the booking engine, which i duly filled in. It also appeared on the MMB Checked today on MMB, its vanished! Oh well F lounge it is then |
Where can i find the link under manage my booking section for Dubai Connect booking?

Not "may be wrong" but rather "is wrong".
I had a 19-hour voluntary layover in DXB a few weeks ago routing JNB-DXB-BOM and the website said that I was eligible for Dubai Connect. I didn't expect it to be but asked anyway at the hotel counter and was told that it was a common website glitch. There were at least 2-3 other people there arguing that Emirates should honour the website misinformation, but they were largely ignored. |
For the guys that it "disappeared" for, did you book the connect service online, then it disappeared? or is being able to book it online something new? I booked it online and it says confirmed, collect voucher at airport.

So, I was planning a trip BOM-CDG in Y and upgrading it using miles. The ticket cost is < $1,100 ($950 or whereabouts). Would this be eligible for Dubai Connect? I also had another question - my flight (EK503) into DXB arrives at 8:30pm and the next flight out to CDG (EK071) is at 4:30 am, though I am planning on EK073 which departs at 08:30am. If I upgrade my ticket from Y to J, would the 8 hour rule for Y still apply to me (EK071 leaves just 'at' 8 hours) or would I be eligible for STPC under the 6 hour rule for J/F. |

Can anyone confirm if this is indeed being followed.

"Dubai Connect may also be offered in other cases, such as Skywards Flex redemption bookings. Other rules may apply, depending on the date that the flights were booked and the fare paid. Dubai Connect must be pre-booked and Emirates is only able to accept bookings at least 24 hours prior to departure of inbound flight to Dubai at the latest. This service is subject to availability." "All Skywards redemption tickets except Saver Economy (i.e. Ticket must be 100% Flex fares) are eligible for the ‘Dubai Connect’ offer, subject to the other conditions herein. The Fare Type paid criteria is deemed to be met for qualifying Skywards redemption tickets." And you need to be > 18 :) And it would be under the T&C's of the J fare i.e. 8hr rule. Best phone EK and they will probably arrange it, if they have not already done so. |

In the above example (EK503 -> EK73), after I upgrade my ticket, the J allowance will apply, i.e 6 hours. However, just by virtue of there being an earlier flight (EK071), forget whether it was later or earlier than 6 hours from my incoming, the system will automatically refuse the STPC for EK073, as I could have connected on EK71. If my connection is on EK71, I'll get the STPC as it is > 6 hours from 503 arrival, but if on EK73, which is a later flight, I will not because there was an earlier flight departing. Now that was really surprising? Can anyone confirm this? |

http://www.emirates.com/english/plan...onditions.aspx The passenger must be booked on the earliest available outbound flight to the required destination to qualify for the ‘Dubai Connect’ offer. |

Anyway, booked on EK505 connecting to EK075 which now makes it much more sane connection. |
Would anyone know if Dubai Connect is available for all QF stock tickets in economy?
Gotta a situation with the following: EK186 to QF2 (BCN-DXB-SYD). The earlier EK418 leaves 50minutes earlier and still qualifies, or at least should. |
I am in X class on IAH-DXB. We have a 9 hour layover on the way back. My ticket says:
non-endorsable/non-end/skywards skysaver/check-in/reward upgrade. This is a revenue ticket. What does the last part mean (check-in reward upgrade?) |
