What other paid for service will they no longer honor? Should I pack my own meal in case they decide to take back meal service as well? Annoyed. So much for "first class" service.
Phone them and explain the situation. Stick to the facts. As it was a reservation made before 1 March, you should still be eligible for CD (unless I have misunderstood it and one had to book the CD before 1 March as well). Award bookings made after that date no longer qualify for that perk. Showing your annoyance using silly examples about meal service is not going to assist you in getting this sorted.
