I have done open jaws with EK. If you do on-line booking, go to "multiple destnations" and fill in each step you want. Your "destination" in one step does not have to the same as your "departure" for the next. The prices seem to be more or less the same as an ordinary return flight.

just to add to FC's very good advice.
When entering you info into the booking engine enter only the start and end destination and omit DXB unless you plan to do a stopover.
IE, BHX - PEK + date / HKG - BKK + date / BKK - BHX + date
Secondly EK dose not do NRT (listed as Tokyo), EK fly's DXB to TYO for Tokyo, presume Tokyo has two airports.
Have good trip.

I wanted to do a trip from JFK-NBO and then BOM-JFK last Nov. I tried in March but got only high fares, then tried in Sep and got good fares. Is this common with EK with to wait till a few months before?

i took the liberty of checking ex BHX fares, and they do allow open jaws. It comes to about GBP 520.00 inc taxes BHX-DXB-PEK/HKG-BKK-DXB-BHX

i've done a double open jaw before:
BHX-DXB-BKK
followed by
HKG-DXB-LGW.
the cost of that in Y was about 450 in 2005, but emirates is more expensive these days! some HKG-DXB flights stop in BKK, but some tickets allow a stopover in BKK only on the inbound leg, while others allow no stopover at all.
