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?
Also forgot that they would likely have F chauffeur drive as well - as they are clearly attempting to abuse the system they might as well extract as much as they can if it's going to cost them nothing.
Stupid really, if EK really wanted to they could introduce a cancellation fee equivalent to the cost of lounge and chauffeur drive into the tkt - and that guy will find his status/miles disappearing all for the cost of a taxi and some average food...!
