Sometimes I scratch my head with EK. I spoke with Skywards yesterday in Dubai. They told me Platinum would be officially announced next week and that we would be able to release the news to FT 24-hours prior to official release (but were waiting final sign off from Corporate Comms). I gave them my word that we wouldnt say anything.

Now we all receive this little teaser email... And on their weekend.

Its not hard to work out that these will be the published benefits of Platinum. Not bad at all...F lounge access in DXB for me is the biggest benefit as well as guest access.
