Euro MPs get tough on air fares

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6293172.stm

I know this will be discussed under greater context elsewhere on Flyertalk, but this thread is just about AF/KL. I wonder how soon they will comply and also if this will include Frequent Flyer Award tickets. Will they now have to disclose to all FB members that award tickets are not free and in fact cost hundreds of €'s.

I don't see anything about award tickets in the press report. It seems to be focused on advertising the true price of the ticket at the beginning of the booking process. AF already complies with this requirement, at least in countries such as France, where it is already required by regulations.
