Impressive Emirates business class flight sale from Sweden

Emirates sent me details of some aggressive sale fares that are available from Stockholm.

The First and business class fares must be booked before the 18th July for travel by 10th December.

Economy tickets are also valid from 11 January to 23 February 2015.

In Emirates business class you get some fantastic deals:

Dubai – £1,371

Bangkok – £1,426

The Maldives – £1,561

Cape Town – £1,703

Emirates runs a Boeing 777-300ER to Stockholm, so you won’t get to experience the on-board bar. 

The business class seats to Dubai are also angled lie flat and NOT fully flat.  First Class has fully flat seats but not private suites.

The standard booking page is here.

Emirates Skywards does not have a UK credit card.  However, you can earn Emirates Skywards miles by converting Membership Rewards points earned from selected UK American Express cards.

Credit cards earning Membership Rewards points include:

• American Express Preferred Rewards Gold Credit Card (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 20,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 15,000 Emirates Skywards miles. This card is FREE for your first year and also comes with four free airport lounge passes.

Membership Rewards points convert at 4:3 into Emirates Skywards miles which is an attractive rate.  The cards above all earn 1 Membership Rewards point per £1 spent on your card, which converts to 0.75 Emirates Skywards miles

The American Express Preferred Rewards Gold Credit Card earns double points (2 per £1) on all flights you charge to it, not just with Emirates but with any airline.
