  • Thanks in advance for reading.

    I am trying to book flights only for 4 adults and 2 infants

    Manchester - Dubai 09/03/10 evening flight

    Dubai - Islamabad 13/03/10

    Islamabad - Manchester 04/04/10



    • The Quote itself:£2256
    • Who the quote is from: Opodo
    • Is there a booking fee: No
    • The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Emirates
    • The departure Airport/Post: Manchester
    • The Holiday Dates:As above
    • The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 4 Adults, 2 infants ( twins 13 months at time of trip
    • The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): none required
    • The Board (self catering/half board etc): n/a
    • Any specific requirements: No
    • Is an in-flight meal included: Yes



    1. I've searched a variety of websites and have found the flights yo yo not only from day to day from hour to hour!!! why is this?

    2. Opodo do not tell you what the baggage allowance is. Am i safe to assume, this would be the same as emirates or will opodo give me a lower allowance for the slightly cheaper fare?

    3. 1 adult fare came up at 483 pounds, i assumed 2 would be 966, but this was not the case the flight went up significantly, why is this?

    4. Is it best to book with a credit card for added protection, allthough their usually is a charge of 2%

    5. Can anyone beat my quote?
    :money: i allways wondered how every one put a message here, MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE!!!
