So, i thought i was over this... guess not. Duty free woodford reserve not helping!!
I was revenue 1X on a recent EK773 from CPT to DXB. Boarding is separated by queue between the Y crowd and the 'elites'. there was a clear queue in the elite line 10 mins prior to boarding, but DYKWIAs (including platinums) just couldn't bother to queue... first time i have seen this at a dedicated priority boarding line, and ground staff couldn't be bothered...
separating me from my DOM by even a minute is not cool!!
... did i mention NO DOM on the ground....

Boarding at remote stations is a shambles. In face when I flew dxb jnb in j it was also a zoo having to queue with all economy pax! How terrible
And get away with it !

Unlike EK771 on 11th - we were reallocated from 1E/1F to 3E/3F for no apparent reason as F not full probably pax in 1A wanting to have his g/f across aisle from him. After 5 reboots of ICE eventually got it working then the real bugbear - both partner and I found we had multiple insect bites on legs and back. Now awaiting customer services feedback on our complaint. So CPT lice do seem to exist
