stopover is allowed on higher F bucket fare for around 400 USD more (one-way). Alternatively, when booking return flight, outbound in A class without stopover and return in business C class with stopover up to 7 days allowed, the cost is around 1,650 USD.

I just have booked it.
Booking couldnt proceed via telephone agent because they couldnt price out.

I used the emirates website and changed the location to Sri Lanka and have done an advanced search. After playing a bit with the departure times i was able to book 3 tickets online.

Can this be priced on the US site?

On Apr 5, I (and, I'm sure, many/most/all other US-based Skywards members) got an email with a coupon code for $50 off econ / $250 off business / $500 off first per passenger (up to 9) for any EK booking. There is no limitation on destination but it must be booked on emirates.com/us.

$500 off this fare would be ridiculous; I'm not sure if it's possible to stack them. Sounds like "too good to be true" territory but it's worth a shot.

Are these codes single unique per customer? I, unfortunately, didn't get such an email, but I will be in the region and would definitely book this fare if I could get $500 off.

Off the base fare no doubt, which might be less than $500. And terms might be for a return trip and/or originating or arriving USA

As I said, there is no limitation on destination. Nor is there a requirement that it be a round trip. You do have to book on the US site though. If there's a Sri Lanka POS requirement, it probably wouldn't work. The flight must be booked on emirates.com/us

Edit: it looks like it's not possible. They force you to book from the site in the country of your departure city. So this code is only good for US departures.

Reminds me of the routing where you could fly CMB-DXB-MLE instead of the 1hr CMB-MLE flight, for 150$ in F one-way

2011 was a good year!

I just wonder how EK were alerted to this ?
I managed to ticket 2 J itineraries via EK app for total
$2300 , which alone will have me re qualified (when flown) for EK gold .
