I assume that you mean that these pax buy a flex plus fare on EK while travelling from the same airport on another airline.They then cancel/change the date of the EK ticket after using the EK lounge. They then travel out on the other airline that they were planning to fly in the first place.
One thing I didn't undertstand was why they had to buy F flex plus. Wouldn't J Flex plus be good enough for the same as all EK outstations have only J lounges.
Or does a F flex plus have less restrictions on changes than a J flex plus?
