Of course, this is typical South African shortsightedness when it comes to loyalty programmes and is not confined to P'n'P. On no account should loyalty be expected of visitors. I suppose we should count our blessings that we can earn points from airlines and hotels in SA.
The same could be said of AviosUK and visitors to the UK who shop at Tesco.
