redirects

a client has asked my to develop their site, they already own 3 domains, mydomain.eu, .net and .com

they want all the traffic from .eu and .net to redirect to .com, ive explained to them that it is not that relevant as people will search for them in search engines rather than typing in the domain, but they still would like me to do it.

As far as i know this is fine to do from an Seo point of view but i thought id just double check ..
