I disagree about refusing the LOSA guy just because of the jumpseat issue.
The way I see it, if this happens regularly, the observers can only see us as a bunch of spoiled brats.
Most of EK's pilots are very professional at what they do - what next, refusing a TRE on the jumpseat on your line check? (Can't see THAT happening as it would effectively ground you.......)
Or worse, deliberately lowering safety standards as a protest against the company?
I say let the observers do their work - and by all means speak your mind to them about whatever's bugging you.
