Is there a way to select different outbound and inbound flights? Now it seems that only certain pairs (in/out) of flights are offered. I need to select a certain in and out for later this month.

Also, what are the differences between the 345 & 777 in regards to Econ. Seats, Entertainment, Food, Service, etc?

Last question: Can I earn miles to any Star Airline. I thought that I can earn United Miles for Emirates flights. True?

Search by schedule not price.

Yes, you can earn UA miles flying EK in theory. However there are numerous reports of EK flights never posting (search the UA forum). Also, they are NOT status miles, just redeemable miles.

I would recommend banking a long flight like that to Skywards, especially if you are flying F or C. The bonus miles you get add up very quickly and if you fly EK in the future they might be handy for an upgrade or two.
