I got a new confirmation email from mytrip.com about 2 hrs ago with my ticket number. (Yesterday’s confirmation only had the PNR even though I was able to find the ticket number on the website.)

Guess that means I’m better off than those that booked direct on EK. LOL

I am not delusional. My ticket will be canceled.

Booked through Travel2be, flight was ticketed. Could choose my seats and all but cancelled....

Hello Folks - I just deleted a number of off topic posts debating things that are not relevant to the fare.

If this continues we will close the thread.

I personally booked with both Expedia and T2B:
Expedia booking is currently not able to be accessed on EK
T2B booking is fully intact, seat selected

For those that see all seats are full: It means all seats apart from 1A is full, EK blocks 1A, so if you wait, you will be able to get 1A in the end. EK does not oversell FCL as far as I know.
For those criticizing bloggers, stop.

I'm jealous of you being canceled.

Wish mine booked on EK will be canceled soon.

Any idea on how to get a free refund for this ?

I didn't buy a ticket but I debated it at length and decided I just didn't have enough travel time left in my calendar to make it work. I hope it sticks even after the phone call lol. Last time EK offered downgrades when there was a low price SE Asia to DXB in F(?) that they decided against honouring, last year I think. They have a sketchy record from my first deal to eu-Australia with EK, blaming OTAs autumn of 2015 and the ticket being pulled. Seems I've never managed to fly with EK.

I've lucked out before on EK on a CMD-MLE via DXB and a KUL-MEL via DXB F fare below in the past so dont give up

I also could not access my FFFY ticketed through Priceline on Emirates.com. A quick check on the seat map shows that my PEN-DXB went from 4 occupied to 0 occupied and DXB-SIN went from 6 occupied to 0 occupied.

My FFFY ticket via Skiddoo is no longer showing on emirates.com so that's a wrap.
