A problem in DXB is they don’t allow standbys to go through security to the gate until they have confirmed seats. So many times even with seats open non-revs get left behind and I argued with the station manager, they don’t care. You get the same response - they’re not gonna get through security in time and the ticket counter is closed etc., etc. etc.
Riding out of DXB is risky business (sh&t show) it’s a crapshoot at best, good luck.
