Would not be surprised to see them change their T&C's to say "chauffeur drive on "partner" award tkts good only in the UAE
I think it's about how they are handling it really. Did anyone outside FT know that it had been taken away if a ticket was re-issued, for example?

My flight is Friday of this week so I am waiting to see if I get a call on Thursday.
