US$1649 Emirates Business Class Fare from Philippines to Europe
Emirates has published deeply-discounted roundtrip business class fare from Philippines to selected destinations in Europe, from as low as US$1649. These fares are bookable by 1 August 2019, for travel between 30 July 2019 and 15 March 2020.
These fares are available from all of Emirates’ Philippines destinations, which include Clark, Cebu and Manila. They are available to a wide range of European destinations such as Brussels, Barcelona, Copenhagen, Madrid, Dublin, Athens, Milan, Zurich, Venice, Stockholm, Oslo, Warsaw etc……
Emirates offers two daily flights between Dubai and Manila, and one daily triangular flight serving the Cebu and Clark. All of these flights are operated by Boeing 777–300ER. On the other hand, flights from Dubai to European destinations are operated by a variety of aircrafts from Airbus A380 to Boeing 777–300ER.
While Boeing 777–300ER business class cabin is arranged in an uninspiring 2–3–2 configuration, Airbus A380 business class cabin is arranged in a 1–2–1 configuration which offers direct aisle access from every seat.
The details of the fares are as below:
Travel period: 30 July 2019 and 15 March 2020
Book by: 1 August 2019
Minimum stay: 3 days
Maximum stay: 1 months
Do note that these are the Business Special fares that Emirates introduced recently. It means that you will not have access to chauffeur service or lounges. Seat selection is also only available after check-in opens.
However if you have eligible Emirates Skywards status, you can still get lounge access and advanced seat selection based on your status benefits.
Depending on the flight itinerary, you might also be eligible for Dubai Connect, which provides free hotel, transportation and meals if your transit in Dubai is longer than 6 hours and less than 24 hours.
To find out which destinations are eligible for these fares, you can search for them directly on Emirates’ website.
What I would recommend is to first look for the city pairs that you plan to fly between (i.e. Cebu and Brussels) on Emirates’ website, and then look for dates which the fares are available with Google Flights. Then once you have locked in the city pairs and dates, book it directly on Emirates’ website.
