Prices in dollars?
I'm trying to get to Germany from Bangkok and saw Emirates has some decent prices (not to mention it is Star Alliance)! When searching on Emirate's website for flights from BKK to HAM the prices are quoted in Thai baht. I would really like to know what is going to be charged to my credit card though. Is there any way to get a price in US dollars?

Free stopovers are cool, I think I'll check out Dubai for a day.

Oh I found it. Once you select your flight it then lets you choose different currencies.

Their exchange rate seems a bit low though :P

Cheers,
Oh thanks for that. You are right. But it looks like United has a partnership with them so I can earn miles on Emirates. You scared me for a moment

You won't earn elite qualifying miles on UA though, just redemable miles...

Holy cow, ...? So much small print! I guess I need to do some calculations. I was really counting on those miles (EQMs).
