Open ticket
I had a flight booked in 2020 that I converted to an ‘open ticket’.
I am now beginning to think about rebooking.
There is some basic information here: https://www.emirates.com/uk/english/...icket-options/
The original ticket was the same origin and destination both ways with 2 day stopover in Dubai both ways.
But does anyone have any experience of doing this and what is allowed/possible? For example:
Separately is there any way of finding a list of which Qantas flights carry an Emirates code?
Sorry in advance of this has been covered elsewhere, I tried a search but struggled to find anything.

- A change of origin within the UK?
- An open jaw within the same destination zone?
- The stopovers in Dubai?
- Other stopovers elsewhere?
- Is it possible to book Emirates codeshares? Particularly on Qantas?

To answer some of your questions, I have rebooked cancelled flights with a change of origin within the UK and I have also changed to within the same zone without any issues, I did one over the phone and one over the chat function. I cannot imagine you having any problems with the DXB stop overs, not sure about the other stop overs though, where do you have in mind for those?

Obviously given the border situation it is still some time off, have just been beginning to ponder what my options might be.

A few years ago I did TUN-DXB-BKK-SYD-SIN BKK-DXB-TUN.
The SYD-SIN was with Quantas, a350 in J which was pretty decent, the rest were EK aircraft. I think I purchased a separate Jet star ticket to get me back to BKK from SIN but the rest were all on the same ticket.

Qantas don't operate the A350. I assume you were on an A330.
