Rules are rules and they are for everyone. This is not the farmers market.
That's up to Etihad I suppose. Just stating my point of view. I personally doubt anything will be done. unless it ends up at a higher desk - who could just wave it.

My experience unrelated to thing... has made me a long life customer of Lexus. I wouldn't buy any other car period. Long story short... They paid to fix my long out of warranty car ($6000+ cost) and sent me a nice flower banquet to say... we stand by our product and want you to be satisfied. It's been 14 years and I've been driving Lexus only. I suppose $6000 has paid off by few folds by now...

Some airlines do little gestures more than others. My personal experience KLM before AF. Used to do little things like this.
