You've been around here a while so I would have thought you knew how forums worked, but in answer to your wise guy comment:

1) I've not seen the inside of his/her wallet so no idea what credit cards are there. If the card is there,or even in a friend or partner's wallet it's a potential reduction in the cost of miles, similar to the one you just highlighted.
2) People other than the OP may read the thread which is titled "Buying Skywards" and might benefit from the information.

That's exactly the card I was thinking of and it will continue to get a discount if used to buy/gift Skywards miles, as discussed on here recently.
