Most useless frequent flyer program perks

[henrus]

I'm curious if others have come across totally useless frequent flyer perks.

I came across this seat selection page on emirates and had a good laugh when Qantas Chairman's Lounge get free twin seat selection on Emirates Economy flight (something QF Plat/Plat One doesn't), I can't imagine that perk is often utilised and can't believe it exists.

Choose your Emirates seat | Booking Online | Book a flight | Emirates Australia

Choose where you want to sit on the flight, whether you’d like some extra legroom or a seat with a view. Explore the options and book your spot.

Priority wait list a benefit of Star Alliance Silver/Gold also jumps to mind when a few airlines like Air NZ don't offer wait listing on their domestic flights (although to Air NZ's credit they've removed this as a listed perk on their website despite it remaining a star alliance benefit).

I'm sure there are a lot worse then the ones above that others have come across, have you spotted any?

I doubt many CL members know that there is Economy seating on long haul flights.
