I ended up booking the whole thing on the phone with the infant.
how much did they charge you for the infant?
I remember once calling them and they wanted to charge 10% of paid ticket which was around $1,500
i ended up booking thru Qantas and infant was free

Don't want to open a new thread so I'll just post here.

I'm trying to book TLV-NYC and there is open F on EK DXB-JFK.

I am trying to book TLV-DXB. the cash price on FlyDubai on a flight that works is about $150, but they have a pretty decent J and I was wondering if they are avileble via partners that might offer good value.

Has anybody here ever tried booking FlyDubai with miles?
u can use emirates sky rewards on flydubai.com

I booked FlyDybai BUD-DXB in J for 38K miles + $120
but i checked different routes and the prices were all over the place so check before you transfer points

I was reading that EK increased the miles needed on their EWR-ATH to 72.5K from 62.5k but that rt was still 90k but i cant find any dates rt for 90k. Does anyone know if they increased their rt as well?
Also what is the best way to search this route in J?

I booked tickets with emirates for the family. I only see an option for refund with cancellation fees or change the ticket to later date, Which are very expensive due to fare increases.

Any way i can make emirates to issue a voucher so that i don't loose cancellation fees.

Cancellation fees are close $1000 for $5000 ( 4 tickets)

What are you looking to know? If it is whether J is flat or angle flat it is angle as of last week.

How many miles/points needed in business from ATH - EWR ? How much in taxes? Is it hard to get availability for a mid week flight?

Is it still an issue to book emirates flights using qantas miles? Read upthread that sometimes they show availability on qantas but it isn't bookable. That still a thing? DOnt want to transfer miles to find out I'm stuck with 110k miles.

Perhaps someone here has a qantas account that can see if the flight is bookable?

ALso related, how much does wantas charge for fuel charges on emirates shower class from JFK to israel?

I have some expiring Emirates/Skywards miles that are expiring soon. I won't be flying Emirates any time soon.

Any ideas? Can I transfer to another program where they'll have a longer shelf life?

Looking at potential Madrid trip. Is it worth flying to Milan to take emirates first home? What about emirates business?
Also how does it work to book infant
