The point of my post is that there are many unanswered questions about PIK for Emirates. YOU may know every divert that has happened in the last 20 years, but do EK operations control? Bare in mind the size of the network, you cannot expect knowledge / contracts in place for every airfield in the world for a once every year event? Everyone is merely trying to suggest theres a little more than siting on the ground for 2 hours with passengers onboard and taking off again. Operations think worse case scenario, and take the safest bet. This of course might not be what the passengers understandably want as it might mean diverting further away
