"Family Lin Piao Zhen" etc...) greeting most arriving flights, often 10+ agents, waiting for VIPs, perform the paid "Al Whatever" Meet & Greet service, attend to Oneworld Elites, or are they sent to expedite the flagged tight connections of normal passengers ?
I am sure, as personal experience, that if you flight F on long haul, i.e. A380, you will be greated and escorted from gate to lounge and vice versa even if the other flight is J. I noticed that you don't get this service if upgraded at airport.
