Mixed Group on EK - Y class passenger with J/F class passengers

Has anyone had a situation where they were travelling in J/F with another person in Y and managed to spend some time with the other passenger? Out of curiosity has anyone been able to convince the purser for the Y passenger to spend time in the A380 bar or in the F cabin? (Perhaps if the bar was empty and didn't disrupt other passengers as I can imagine this would cause some annoyance..)

Or did you just keep separate?

Curious if anyone had some good experiences or conversely had a horror story about other passengers attempting/doing this?

ive managed to get some y pax into the j bar when I was in f and platinum- I’d never dare or would they be allowed in the F cabin. It’s in the discretion of the purser for y pax to come for a quick drink at the bar on an a380 and for every great purser I’ve also had a real stickler to the rules...

Pretty easy for the J/F pax to enter the Y cabin and spend some time with the companion. Not so easy the other way around.

Where in the F cabin? Your own suite, the shower spa or a suite of their own?

FT is littered with horror stories about inter-class upgrades, the stench of self entitlement and exception reeks. If an F pax with no status managed to get the Y pax into the F lounge, then go ahead and try.

For some people it's all of the above, including the food, PDB, and service.

You mean Y passengers are actually mixing with J passengers? Not to mention F?
What will the world come to next..... Sharing the same bus at DXB maybe?

Just make sure you get on the right one and not unduly delayed... 😉
