Emirates & Booking.com Team Up
 

Typical!

You book your holiday and then this shows up.

Great initiative.

Would be cool to see one use their skywards miles to redeem nights.

You can redeem Skywards miles for hotel stays through Rocket Miles

At a rate of 1 euro = 1 Skyward mile, it is probably not going to divert any hotel spend away from existing channels, but if you were going to use booking.com anyway, seems like a helpful way to pick up a handful of miles here and there.

Thanks SCOTTY for the info.

Going via EK website, booking.com recognized me.
Nevertheless :
> "genius" discount doesn't seem to appear
> 1 mile for 1 euro is very expensive. I get 500 miles whenever I rent a car, and I don't pay 500 euros ... Anyway, you are right, one mile gained is better than nothing.

As I mentioned you can use Rocket Miles, I think the lowest earning is 500 miles, with many properties being higher, and it has pretty much the same inventory as booking.com (I think they plug into their backend engine). Discussion here: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/emir...earn-burn.html

True, although a lot of the places available on booking.com are not available on rocketmiles. I find the medium to high priced places are on Rocketmiles.

But, redeeming skywards on booking.com is quite low

For the same place in VA I was booking:

Skywards on booking.com 587
Skywards on Rocketmiles 3500 (without promo)
