I get that you don't like EK because of some weird notion you've cooked up about the security threat it poses to Canada by virtue of potentially interfering with AC's rent seeking behaviour, but this post is weird to the point of being nonsensical.
EK didn't do anything that AC staff in Canada didn't do on their way to Iran. And EK staff didn't do anything that AC staff didn't do in LHR on their way back. Are we to take it that everybody - particularly the AC staff who let them board their flight in Canada and in London (the latter after this incident) aren't detail-oriented?
What proof do you have anyhow that EK or any other airline in the region aren't detail oriented? (Other than that you just don't like them)?
