I'll be arriving at ICN and I booked the chauffeur to take me into town. Anyone have experience with adding another passenger to the car at ICN? My girlfriend (not taking EK) would like to meet me at the airport and we go together in the car to the hotel. It seems possible at other locations, anyone have experience at ICN with this (adding another person)?

BCN CD direct contact number?
Hi. Does anyone have the direct contact details for the CD service out of BCN? I looked at the wiki but that only has the EK ticketing office. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Wont the ticket office not be able to give you the direct CD provider contact number? They did that for me in AMS a few months ago.

We booked two Business class tickets to BKK, travelling together. For the chauffeur drive in BKK we would be further out and I’m thinking whether to book the Emirates chauffeur drive or something different, considering the additional cost. Does Emirates give a discount on the additional mileage cost, if you travel with one instead of two cars throughout your journey.....I only have excess mileage on one single trip out of the four. If so, how to best request that?

I got an E-class (previous generation) for an F pick-up at DXB, which I was half expecting, but also ended up getting an E-class upon arrival at STN, which was listed as S-class for F in this thread.
Not the end of the world but it would be nice to get an S-class at some point!

Update on BCN CD
Apparently, BCN CD does not call you. Once it was 10 mins past pick up time, I called EK. They would not give me the CD number but said they should be there and they would call them to find out what was happening!!! All was well in the end but without the call and no CD at the agreed time, I was somewhat nervous! Oh and it was a Merc E class, whatever that is! Cars mean nothing to me so long as my luggage fits in and I’m comfortable!

Emirates Chauffeur-drive only shows up for second segment?
Hi I am flying First Class with Emirates from Sydney to Dubai (stop a few days) then from Dubai to DC. When I do Manage Booking on emirates site, there's a popup that says Chauffeur-drive service for free. I clicked on it, but it only gives me options to be picked up from Dubai airport and DC airport on the second leg. Nothing for Sydney or Dubai when I arrive. Is this expected?
