Does CX handout free miles like candy?
I was drunk like two weeks ago and I wrote an email to MPC just saying I wish Gold people should get a free bottle of water too, just not just Diamonds. I think it stemmed from my late flight where my throat was feeling a bit dry and I asked for a bottle and I was denied (basically told, they'll be back and then then sorry there was no water bottles left).
Anyways, I didn't think this was a big issue and being a drunken letter I didn't remember writing this. Today, I got a reply from CX apologizing for this and I was given 7500 miles for this inconvenience and a promise they will improve on this (yeah, good luck on that).
(OT: I had a written a surprising articulate email for a very drunk person)
So my question is, does CX basically give out AM like free candy? Because I'm not usually a complainer, so… should I become one?
(To be totally honest, I think I was hoping they had replied, "Sir, as a goodwill gesture, we are offering you an early upgrade to DM," you know being the customer oriented airline that they are—I'm only like 20k miles away!)
(So should I just reply back and ask for more?) :greedy: :shameless:

Even when i;ve not been travelling with my Diamond plus clients (lowly Green or silver), the Cabin Crew..they've ever bought me water over just as i've boarded or i've asked for a sneaky bottle before takeoff nonetheless.
And what is wrong with taking an empty bottle and filling up from the fountains/coffee bars anyways?
But yay for more miles..
