The airport staff in DXB literally begged my mum for tips during her wheelchair transfer. Then lost her walking stick.

Chauffeur at Sydney asked me to share with two other pax, then got to the car and realised there wasn't enough room for our luggage, despite seeing our cases. And just told me to walk back to the terminal to 'see if I can get another car' then promptly drove off.

Mums GLA DXB flight downgraded to J with a refund far below the far difference, due to EKs Rouse of using full J fares vs Round Trip F ones to calculate a refund.

Never again will I give that airline money.

On a side note, didn't really appreciate the obvious censorship in shows like Modern Family and Arrested Development.
BA Gold? You are on the wrong forum, mate!
