Load seems fairly light but with 0 upgrade seats ( A, C & I Classes) showing:



But with EK, you never know! You could always try claiming you've stubbed your toe!!

Yrs,

OP, what is your nationality? if you find a check-in agent that is the same nationality as you, you may be able to pull this off.

How fascinating that you appear to keep using the word 'quack' randomly in your rantings? It always amuses me that the other definition of a 'quack' is that of a charlatan?
