Looking into taking out a Skywards + subscription, couple of questions:
1. Does the 20% discount get tied to the person whose miles are being used or to the traveller?
For example I have a Skywards + membership, I am booking for my wife and daughter using miles from my account, or does she need to have the subscription even though miles going from my account?
2. If you have a family account, and redeeming for upgrades any specific rules?
3. The Unlimited upgrade 20% discount, does that apply to everyone you use miles for from your account or tied to PNR with subscriber?
