this is great news, i look for fhr rates all the time, this is a long time coming. it seemed like such a simple thing to do, but we have been deprived for so long.
i don't think this has anything to do with the USA FHR site, as the whole site is different.
i like the special offers on the usa website, there is good value in booking those offers,
has any cdn platinum booked these offers through PTS? it specifically states that they are valid for US plat card members only.
