Devil Quatar CEO on EK845 flight to DXB

Why in the world would Quatar's CEO pay to fly EK to DXB if he can fly with his own airline for free???? Why would he fly EK at all!

I smell a rat...

He prob jumped on a QR flight straight back to Doha.
The element of surprise ie terrifying the s*** out of the crew when he boards the aircraft unexpectadly would sum up AAB perfectly.

Don't all airline CEOs fly for free on all airlines. I thought that was why Mr Branson spent most of his time on Concorde!

Maybe the timing of the flight departure was right for him having a meeting somewhere?

Or maybe he just wanted to go on Emirates to check it out?

Or maybe he did it to see what the competition has to offer.

Or maybe he just want to go incognito.

I really see nothing wrong with him going on Emirates.

I actually think it is good for him to see what is out there. Don't you?

Talking

You guys ever heard this very line

"Keep your friends close.But keep your enemies closer" ?


Nah... it can't be .... (can't it? LOL)

I'm pretty sure it's like Hajjman says : "Maybe the timing of the flight departure was right for him having a meeting somewhere?"

The rest like spying on airline operations and other things are probably just some benefits out of being on EK flight. But still, he only brainwashes his cabin crew how QR are much more efficient and excellent than EK...

all CEOs free travel

All ICAO accredited airlines extends free travel to ICAO airline CEOs.....

A perk worth having, if you need to go now.

If I was a CEO I would have wished to travel Conc once a week to JFK to collect my Latte.....

It was 0100 in the morning, don't think he was going to a meeting at that time!

I was just wondering about this one as rumer has it "he is not very popular among his own ranks"
