The Emirates Skywards program is generally the best way to redeem miles for travel on Emirates, especially in premium cabins. Admittedly there are a lot of things I don’t love about the program, like the high carrier surcharges and redemption rates, the lack of 1:1 points transfers from most programs, and first class redemptions being limited to elite members.
However, there are also some things to appreciate about the program, including the Emirates Skywards stopover policy when redeeming miles. I’d like to talk a bit in this post about how this works.
To expand on that:
