When I was there 18 moths ago or so, in a previous iteration, there were boys dancing, and it was a considerably higher standard. Also, to my taste, sexier boys!

I assumed that was a reference to Nero fiddling (sic), while Rome burned.

Contained Novichok?

Funeral Director's Monthly?

It just gets so boring after a while!

Possibly!

This is getting really tedious.

Well, both involve a party.

Funeral?

Bit like shooting fish in a barrel!

Perhaps a vibrator function?

It was a joke!

Not Esperanto?

Mongols, Phoenicians, Ottomans, Macedonians, Greeks, Muslims, Vikings, Normans, the list goes on.....

On another topic, we were talking about damages for nervous shock. This would seem to be a perfect case

He was using one of his other personalities.

Fair enough, though I do get blogs from industry websites, that highlight endemic issues.

Yes, I am specifically targeting the mega Gulf carriers.

To be fair, though their onboard service is poor, at least in my view, I have always found that they cope well with cancellations etc. I think that is partly at least because of the litigation environment in the USA. Gulf carriers don't have to worry about being sued for millions!

I agree, but I'm talking about ordinary, non ballistic, crises. If you follow the travel blogs, there are many complaints about Emirates and Qatar, who frequently loudly publicise their virtues, but, it seems, don't lift much of a finger when things go wrong. Their customer service reputation is at odds with their glitzy image.

As I said in another post, that sort of service is rare. The Middle Eastern Arlines, Emirates, Qatar, etc, have a particularly bad reputation in this area. Mind you KLM, Swiss, and Lufthansa, don't do that well either,

Very efficient of the airline.

Blind leading the blind?

In real time or Olddaddy time?

I read that the front runner is one of the sons of Khamenei, so no change there.
