<<Will my bags be transferred between FlyBe & Emirates or will I have to go through security in Dusseldorf again? >>

Looks like the former.

You'll find out for sure when you check in at the FlyBE desk, they will tell you.

thats quite concerning in regards to TravelUp I just hope i get lucky and there is no problems.

Thanks for advice.

Don't Emirates fly direct from Birmingham to Dubai? I guess this route was cheaper.

Why fly via Dusseldorf? Emirates direct flights from Birmingham to Dubai.

to be honest yes it was somewhat cheaper.. I have had a Itinerary from Emirates themself and this shows all flights as being confirmed.

Concerning the luggage allowance, I am wondering... I thought the most significance carrier rule would apply (i.e. EK here). But emirates.com/english/plan_book/baggage/bagga… reads "Learn about the baggage allowances and baggage rules of our interline partners below:" and link to www.flybe.com/flightInfo/baggage.htm... I would seek for a written confirmation from FlyBe on that one...

I finally got my E-ticket reciept yesterday...this confirms that all flights have been booked and confirmed and that 30kg is my standard allowence, even on the flyBe connecting flights.
