Are any vacation or tourist destinations near kuwait as I'd like to use it as a connecting destination?

Could you explain how i would go about this?

As per the fare rules you can have one stop over and unlimited at 100USD (someone can correct me on the latter part) if you were to fly JFK-MXP-DXB-KWI you could say stop in MXP for a week, continue onto DXB and connect to KWI and return on the next day/flight however it breaks down. On the EK site you would want to book as multiple destinations/stopovers and plug in your dates.

Amazing fare, but the only 50% credit to AS kills this one for me, unfortunately.

Thanks for the answer!

Im trying to go about this but unfortunately Emirates doesn't give the final fare until the last page. Any way to possibly get a fare calendar on their site for this? Cheapest i can get for the 2nd week of sept for JFK - MXP - DXB - KWI - JFK is $720

Search via ITA and use the connection points through there, start with the base and build from there

Is MXP the only free stopover in EU?

Thanks so much for your help, is it safe to assume the extra stop at a certain time would make the fare a bit more expensive, im getting the following and just want to make sure im doing it right.

Thanks!

The base fare is now 400ish ex NYC OW, the return is still 215USD though that is why it's around the 700USD mark

Sent you a PM, found it for 6 (just tried 6) days, try using the EK site as ITA has been a PIA all day today
