Glowfish - that's the thing 22 hrs is not a concrete wall. Read sub para f it's very clear.

That's why i wrote

To me the 22 hours barrier is a 3 feet concrete wall.
in para b you can read that the maximum permitted FDP is 22h. That's what i stick to.

It's true that in para f it says that in "extraordinary circumstances" the FCP can waive any imaginable limit for ULRs (we are in the law bending ME after all ...), but it is clearly stated that the final decision rest solely with the commander.
Late departures and medical diversions are no longer extraordinary circumstances, with DXB airport and the number of pax stacked into whales. So show some balls ffs.
