She's mostly just telling people "last cabin", "last cabin for you", and when she was standing in my row as I arrived and with a smile I remarked "Excuse me, you're in my spot" she gave me a blunt look and simply moved, not acknowledging the smile or (I thought) friendly tone of my voice.

An unfortunately frequent occurrence on these flights, which I think is also due to crew's prejudice towards the predominant passenger segment, who have little to no travel experience.
ugh... EK525. I avoid 524/525 with a passion.

No excuse for the crew to be rude, but I get it. Maybe we should start bringing the crew Karachi biscuits as a gift/appeasement?
