Change fee on saver/flex combo
 
Hi,

My outbound flight is a saver fare and my inbound is a flex fare. If I upgrade my inbound flight to J after booking the original ticket do I have to pay the change fee for saver (400AED) or do I pay it for Flex (250)?

Thanks.

if you do an upgrade in a higher cabin (I assume your original ticket is in Y) the change fee will be waived however you have to call EK as it is not working online.

Is this ever mentioned when doing it online? Seems a bit s*itty.

No - the website coding sucks - or more probably, the fares people don't tell the website coders about all the rules and so they hard code it in :D

For instance, I have to contact EK about ex-NQY-LGW departures, which are exempt from APD, but yet EK collect it :D
