Can anyone tell me what the advance purchase rule is for Z fares to DXB? Checking online today, for a flight in 36 days, they're still available, and I wonder until when as I make my mind up?
Thanks

Splendid!
I have to go to Sri Lanka for a conference end-April. Usually I would have gone through on Emirates. However with idle time I looked at options, Emirates in J would be £2,103 however Virgin in J LHR-DXB (Z fare) plus then Emirates in J DXB-COL comes in at £1,830. Seems like a no brainer ... apart from the longer connection time necessary in DXB. And I always thought Emirates priced connections very attractively ...
Thanks Decker.
