No idea, but as AA elite(s) I/we have been op-upped by IB so many times in the recent past, short and long haul, that I just don't know what to think, except be grateful, and totally blind/deaf at whatever other shortcomings they have, faults, by the way, that IMO and IME are neither so huge nor so frequent as reported here in FT.
