This doesn't seem to show any info at all for the credit card, so I don't think this is the answer. We know there are exceptions for the cardholder and people traveling with him. I don't know whether this applies to an MS award booking or not, but I am pretty sure it doesn't apply to non cardholders traveling without the cardholder.
