Yes I was going to say that's a pretty poor CV. She took over FB in 2009, that's when the program took a giant turn for the worse if I recall correctly.

It might be the next move, as Accor clearly set its marketing and loyalty programs to international standards, and is now a seperate company from Edenred (part of the reason to use cheques instead of points).
If Accor improves its Sofitels (more luxurious properties, more destinations, club, pool) and its loyaly programme (like InterContinental Royal Ambassasor), I could be one of their most loyal customers (like the quality of service at Accor hotels, but not a big fan of their design and location).

It's all still extremely vague, but the most recent shareholder newsletter includes (on page 9) the following text:
Am I alone in holding onto my points these days, in the hope that they'll become more valuable/flexible in the foreseeable future?
