I posted at 10:07 pm central time that it would likely die soon as it was 7:07 AM in Dubai and some revenue analyst lackeys were about to roll into work and realize ... happened overnight.

I tend to think they will honor these tickets. MLE isn't exactly a HUGE destination, limited # of people go there. So I suspect EK would take the small hit in exchange for huge customer goodwill.

I caught a EK pricing glitch to Cairo a couple of years back, and they honored it.

Booked 4 tix MLE-CLE for $155each. The dates that I could fly aren't ideal (monsoon season) and positioning looks like it will be a nightmare, even with a nice stash of miles. I booked through Orbitz, so I'm thinking about cancelling. This deal is one of the best deals I've ever booked, from a CPM standpoint. I hate the thought of cancelling, but it doesn't seem worthwhile given my situation.

I just saw €86 on Momondo for July dates. Go get it!
Unfortunately I won't be able to get to MLE this side of Christmas (what a pity!), but here's to those who have managed to grab this excellent deal, if it gets honoured ^

My OTA cancelled it too. My CC had been charged, tickets were issued and I had selected my seats on the EK site. Oh well at least I don't have to spend today figuring out how to get to MLE 
. Might have been safer booking on the EK site but didn't know the fare was on their site too until after booking.
