Well, ok, but as I mentioned earlier in France you earn TEN times more credit on a CDG-NRT in F as compared to what we do in the UK! So your Paris to Moscow which costs you, say, twice more BB credits than it does to a UK member effectively costs you five times less in terms of fly/burn ratio since you earned ten times more credits in the first place!! If there is any discrimination here, it is very clearly against the UK BB members and not the FR BB ones!
