I agree in principle that EK's not responsible but with what your saying it sounds like its not a good idea to book a hotel / rent a car or make any travel plans/bookings in advance at the destination because at the end of the day EK's not responsible if it doesn't get us to our destination at the original time EK was suppose to (for whatever reason) and we end up paying all the charges etc.....
