Emirates suite availability with Alaska air

I have gotten the partner award fee refunded over the phone a couple of times already.
I just asked nicely and they did it.

Does EK release F seats close in? Right now I have the only F seat on an EK 777 reserved.

If DW has an award booked with AS is EK F on the long leg and EK J on the shorter leg, yet the F cabin is empty except for me, would EK let DW sit in F?

Please don't comment on the fact that 1 seat is in J and 1 in F on the shorter flight; at this point it's irrelevant

Well as of now the F pax watches the baby, so she's quite happy in J. As I said, it's not relevant now.

No.
Do they allow visitors, like would we be able to eat together? What about in J?

I've seen them allow visitors for meals. Although it was an Emirati couple, not sure if that matters.

ETA: just hang out in the lounge if 380.

I assume it comes down to the crew, no? Isn't there a small chance they'd allow DW to come if the baby is screaming and I can't quiet her?

It's a 777, so no lounge.

. I would say more than a small chance they'll allow. YMMV as always though.

Well I guess we'll see. Problem is even if EK opens up another F seat, AS can't grab it without the first leg being available in F also which it isn't. Sure they can cancel my ticket and hope the seat goes back into inventory, but I'm not taking that chance.

Officially, not allowed, but for a visit, I'm sure most crews won't object.

So is an 8 hour visit in an empty seat next to me ok as long as for take off no one's sitting there?  ;)

Well that's good to know, assuming a seat becomes available. I have an EF alert set.

I see plenty of availability, but the EK F prices are very expensive.
