In general, I personally have no issue with a 'see for yourself' sort of philosophy.

I did, however, feel that the flippant description of recent posts from various members as "ramblings" was somewhat misplaced.

The thread on the negative aspects of the DXB J lounges was actually opened by a highly experienced & well-informed FT-er ..... a long-time Plat with EK (albeit just recently reverted to Gold, AFAIK).
