The Skywards website is quite silly with it's "supposed" benefits. For example, it lists that the chauffer drive service is complementary, when travelling in business class, for skywards members. However, you don't even need to be a member at all to get this benefit

Similarly, all these things are available to non Skywards Members:

E-ticket (Electronic ticket) service
The option of booking different cabin classes on each leg of your journey
The ability to search across a range of dates, or search for 'next available flight
Booking Emirates' chauffeur drive service online when you fly First or Business Class.
Cheers

ps the price you got was pretty amazing!

I dont know if Emirates have recently changed the rules but the web-site let me do this for months until now.
Its even written somewhere that one of the advantages of booking through their website is that you can book different cabin classes.
Just an update:

I had no problems doing it from other cities in Europe (LHR etc.) However, I could not price out the first segment in Y ex MUC either

Cheers

Excellent report, how much did you pay for this trip if do not mind? How does this compare to CX as far as you know?

By the way, sadiqhassan, your signature is very nice and humble...wish you the best to you and your family.
