You apparently never buy EBCI, so you haven't realized that not only do the month-in-advance emails that you get a day after you booked and bought EBCI still pitch you to buy EBCI (even though can't buy it twice for the same flight, no matter how much you wish to part with an extra $10!), but also when you get the second one, weeks after you bought the EBCI, it still asks you to add EBCI. What idiots! Can't the program that sends out the email check to see whether it's an EBCI reservation already? (It shows that online with a little EB logo!)

So they're double idiots. Idiiots for thinking that a month is "just around the corner", and idiots for not checking to see if I've already bought EBCI before asking me to buy it (for that same flight).
