You did well to get that. I faxed my visa to a nice lady called Janice at Emirates who was very apologetic and said that I couldn't have 40kgs because of my previous validation visit. I didn't argue because I'm relieved to have the flight booked. Plus I'm taking the same old cruddy case anyway

Re: Beware Emirates via Travelocity

Booked our emirates flights with travelocity, so this thread had me worried.
Rang emirates last night, no problems and have pre-booked our seats, they also told me to fax them a copy of our visa's and we should get the 40kg allowance.
Paid £1800 for 4 one way to Perth in Jan.
