Thanks for the details

Extremely impressed this morning
 

This morning was at the door of the PH DXB at 10:55 am. I was at the door of EK FCL B at 11:14 am… if that is not efficiency at its best I don’t know what is! Seriously three thumbs 👍 up.

Transfer, checking, passport control, security and up to the lounge in 20 minutes!

If only all my travels could be like that!

They have been using Careem / Uber vehicles recently quite a bit when busy. Careem seem to consider a Tesla a premium vehicle (I certainly don’t). The drivers use the EK app for the jobs. If I’m in J I will usually call and say I have 3-4 pieces of luggage which usually means I’ll get a branded 5 series Estate/Touring.

25 minutes from Address Sky View including bag wrap. Lack of dedicated lane for Immigration and security for FC meant a. few minutes 'delay'.

Flew First in to BOM - Picked up in a new E-class
Flew First out of BOM - picked up in a new 7-series BMW.

THe 7-series ride-feel was definitely nicer.

Nice, HYD seems to only have E classes unfortunately

:Lucky! Not the norm - E Class is standard fare for both J and F. Though, I have got S Class and 7 Series on a couple of occasions. Would definitely prefer an E Class over the 5-Series station wagons that do duty in DXB.

Wow! I am glad I lucked out!

Need Blacklane 50$ Voucher (if having extra or you plan not to use)
 

I don’t know weather this is the right place to ask, but if you have a 50 $ Blacklane voucher that is
either extra voucher or you all think you might not use!

Can you please share it with me? My DM’s are open

There ain’t Blacklane in India (home) and , and I will travel international next week and could see blacklane at that country!
i will be able to use it over there! Thanks!

Actually they are present but restricted only to EK Chauffeur Drive. Good luck for your search.

Hi everyone,
This is my first post on the Emirates forum but I’ve been a contributor to the BA forum. I’ve a few questions I would like to ask regarding the Chauffeur service and hopefully get some answers 😃 I’m considering flying from Edinburgh to Sydney next year with Emirates in business class ( wouldn’t consider anything less after a 16 hr flight back from Haneda in F which was a lifesaver), we did look at BA but with the recent changes to the Executive Club it makes sense to look at options. Anyway on to the questions. I noticed that there were some exclusions in ticketing i.e. basic fares don’t qualify for the chauffeur service? Would I be correct in saying this? Is the service available for arrivals at our destination to our hotel? And lastly is the service available returning to the airport?

Thank you for all your advice in advance

There are some “Special” fares that don’t qualify for CD. Saver / Flex and Flex Plus will all get CD.

You’ll get the CD at both ends of your journey, so 4 cars in total assuming you’re going straight through. If you’ve got a stopover in Dubai, you’ll also get cars there to take you from and to the airport.

Thank you DYKWIA

It makes even more sense to use Emirates now as I’m a £100 both ways to Edi from my home in Fife 😀

Get yourself to the park-and-ride and get the 747 bus ;).

Just bear in mind that the maximum free distance for the CD service is 70 driven miles. If it’s further than that, it can be quite costly. See the website for details.


Edit: Ah, just looked it up. Only about 32 miles or so. No problem. I live 69 miles from LGW, that’s really pushing the envelope :D
