Re: Do Emirates stop at dubia & singapore ?
We flew from Heathrow - Dubai - Singapore - Brisbane December 2003.
As Gryling says this might of changed due to different plane sizes - you would need to specifically book this route with a travel agent. When we go I want to give dubai a miss as a stopover and visit singapore this time (stopped in Dubai the last time). The stop in singapore was only for refuelling but you could make it your stopover. We want to fly Emirates from Glasgow airport this time to save the hassle of flying down to Heathrow. I hope you get everything sorted! Lynn :) |

I think this is because you dont actually change planes like you do when you get to Dubai. I stayed on but most people got off to stretch their legs. you have to show your boarding pass again before take off whether you stay on or not. (also if you leave your magazine or anything hanging around on your seat if you get off, the cleaners will throw it away) |
Re: Do Emirates stop at dubia & singapore ?
As said Emirates operate 2 stop and 1 stop flights to east coast destinations. If you have one stop obviously that is in Dubai; if you have 2 stop it is in Dubai and Singapore. Emirates flies daily 2 stop and 1 stop to Melbourne. Ironically the stopover in Dubai is much longer for the 1 stop and it arrives some 6 hours later than the 2 stop flight (Melbourne anyway). You also have to pay more for most 1 stop flights and/or cheap fares are not available on the one stop flight. Emirates.com is a clear website. Just enter your airports at either end and some dates and 2 possible flights will come up - 1 stop and 2 stop. I don't know if the 1 stop is daily to Brissie though - it certainly is to Melbourne and Sydney.
