First Class on Emirates, Offer or Error?

Hi guys,

This is my first post on the Emirates Forum. Whilst checking for flights for myself and a friend from LHR to Dubai and Hong Kong in September, I stumbled upon an Emirates fare in First Class giving us 2 nights in Dubai and 3 Nights in Hong Kong for only 1,620 per person!!!
I booked it there and then but have been wondering ever since if it was an error or just an absolutely AMAZING OFFER, can anyone shine some light on this???

Our LHR-DXB and DXB-LHR sectors are flights with First Class suites. With the miles that we will each receive for these flights and the savings from all the chauffeur transfers that I normally pay for when traveling BA, and the free hotel in Dubai for our trip, this just seems to good to be true.

It's a special offer. It's the business class fare with a complimentary upgrade to First.

Bangkok is even better - as you can get the A380.

Cheers,
Rick

I assume this would allow the free stopover in DXB.

There's also a 2-4-1 offer at the moment which works out at about 800 per person in J class.

Cheers,

Does anybody know if by any chance these offers are available to Dubai residents?

Thanks!

I booked it for 3 nights Dubai and 3 nights Bangkok in November. The fare is available til the end of June subject to availability.
I found it available on Expedia, Airline Network and by phone from Trailfinders.

It does seem too good to be true, but i have my E tickets and cant wait to try Emirates for the first time.

Bought two tickets at GBP 1663 each on June 30, the last day for this promotion. Amazing price, thanks OP for tipping me off to it! Can't wait to try EK F, it's our first time on EK.
