Saver J ex-UK Fares
Hey all.
I booked a return GLA->CMB fare a few months ago for March but it turns out Im going to have to change the date. I thought I may just upgrade myself both ways to J as well. However, I can't get any Saver fares departing GLA or MAN in Feb/March. Have they stopped? I traveled on a Saver fare last year in J. Whats the best way to find Saver fares? Are there any ex-UK? And can somebody tell me the class letters for Saver GLA->CMB. At the moment I'm basing it on what Skywards Miles Breakdown is telling me. Thanks! Mark |
Looking at the EK business fares to CMB, the reason you see no saver fares is because there is none
The lowest fare is IEEAXGB1 and is a flex fare If you have the extra time and are prepared to take a longer journey to save some money to get a saver fare, you could save about GBP800 and purchase a saver fare to Singapore (OLEBPGB1) . You could then, for example, fly GLA-DXB-CMB, have a stopover in CMB and then fly CMB-SIN-DXB-GLA ( or vice versa) This will save GBP800 but will take longer and , if it is of concern, earn less skywards miles than buying a ticket to CMB |
Dave you are incredible. How brilliantly bizarre. Checked dates and times and I can save over £800 by just an extra day of my time.
Thanks for your help. Mark |
J saver fares ex uk are now the price of J flex fares in 2012.:mad::mad:

Thanks Fare basis is OLEBPGB1 which books in O class You should be able to get it online from emirates.com Just did a dummy booking LGW-CMB 20/02 CMB-SIN 10/03 SIN-LGW 11/03 and it priced up at GBP1746 plus taxes of GBP197.17 for total of GBP1943.17 This was even having arrival into Singapore at 21:05 on the 10th and departing at 01:20 on the 11th , so no need ( unless you want to ) to actually spend any time in Sinagpore |

Just been able to buy 2x J class fares out of August from AMS for £1437 each.
Looked at UK prices for same dates and easily asking £1950 -£2300 for the dates i wanted. Easy enough to buy a return to AMS and then connect with me EK flights still works out cheaper than the orginal 2 from the Uk ... ok it adds a couple extra hours in AMS but a big saving of £1100. I've travelled to BKK many times but never found a flight at that cost and i used to then travel on my own........very happy with what i got....just rather annoyed about rip off UK fares stu |
When a j saver fare is showing as “sold out” for a particular flight 6 months away, does that mean a saver fare will never open up for that flight again? Or even though it states “sold out” Emirates may still open up more saver space at a later date?

Just received EK’s current Travel more for less Special offer, ex UK to SIN in J for 2,429 GBP
since LH & LX currently offer F ex MAN & BHX to SIN for 2,890 GBP I think I will pass on EK’s generous offer Really EK’ s pricing is steep now |
