A big shout-out to our OP!
I booked three of these gems nicely spread throughout the year.
Btw EK has a double tier miles promotion going in case you want to credit to Skywards.

All the excitement got me thirsty. I’ll have a drink now.

Hopefully we wont. But no one on FT can answer that question.

I am very nervous about having only 1 hour transit time between PEN-SIN and SIN-DBX leg.
Can't wait to hear from anyone.

Depends which service you're on, there will be two SIN departures around the same time once the PEN flight starts, an A380 leaving at 00.50 and the PEN flight on a 777 which departs at 01.40. If you're booked on the 1 hour connection it means you'll be changing planes from the PEN-SIN 777 to the A380 leaving around the same time. Not sure what the plans for the 777 are in SIN but hopefully given there will be two hours on the ground passengers will be allowed off to go to the EK lounge.

My bad.
Mine is ek349 all the way...

Anyway, the stopover is guaranteed and I'm sure EK will accommodate you in case of delays...

In case of not making SIN-DXB after arrival from PEN youll be rebooked likely on direct back to PEN. What a let down from xx hours in EK F to fly in eco to sin and an hour back in F to PEN 😂
