HVC / STF
Hi all,
On a recent flight to LGW, I saw the passenger manifest and next to selected passengers were the designations HVC++, HVC+, HVC and STF.
I think HVC++ is Sheikh status (A guess based on his family name being the same as that of the ruling family of one of the Emirates), HVC+ is I/O and HVC is gold. What is STF?
Many thanks.

Why would they use HVC++, they have VIP for those? Was it an Emirates other than Abu Dhabi or Dubai

I guess the members of the Nahyan and Maktoum families travel by their private 744's.

Yes, someone from outside the major Emirates. He was wearing the black and gold robe when he boarded and had the HVC++ designation next to him. It stuck out on the manifest as it was highlighted in yellow.
