I don't think it's been mentioned on here, but the free Covid-19 travel insurance ends for tickets purchased after 1st December 2021.

Actually, YES. They have a sale at the end of the summer also, between August/September when they drop their prices. And they are actually dropped. Like Economy marked down about $300.
I'm just waiting on the black friday sale. Also, the deals will go fast if you're looking for a "special" or "saver" fare. They may fill up quickly. So, at least look now at what's available for your dates and try to book ASAP. The sale will start before you get the announcement from Emirates that it has started. Just keep checking.

What market do you live in? I haven't received any email and can't get to the link for black friday sales. Is the link they sent you private or is for anyone? If for anyone could you post it, please? Thank you🙏

The prices don’t look very good, but I have DXB as my default location so I suppose it ranges from “rip your eyeballs out” to “lose your left arm”.

Hi all I am flying to Dubai from Manchester UK in a couple of weeks and have just booked my pre flight covid test at the airport the afternoon before my flight
On looking at my confirmation email is says there will not be a QR code on the pdf email attachment of my results.
Does this matter and can I just show the file on my phone at check-in or will I have to get it printed out somewhere
Thanks

Are you having the Collinson test or the other company, I don't know what the difference is between the two, perhaps with the other company you get a QR code , but this one was cheaper so I chose them, if I do have to have a QR code I might have to cancel and re-book

Hi everyone. With the new USA regulations I have a question. Previously, with the 3 day limit, I had been traveling to the USA from Indonesia using a PCR test. Now with the 1 day requirement, that is more difficult, so I will get an Antigen test. Has anyone ran into any issues with Emirates agents while using an Antigen test Vs PCR, even though the USA accepts Antigen as well? Thanks, probably a silly concern!
