Nor do I, but then again, it's from a forum I saw on the internet, so it must be true. Or?

According to Wednesday's Court Circular, Alex Cruz met with the Duke of York (aka Air Miles Andy) - did HRH receive a personal briefing on changes being made?:

28 March 2018
Buckingham Palace
The Duke of York this afternoon received Mr. Alejandro Cruz (Chairman and Chief Executive, British Airways).

Markie, Nicoolio and tedcruz like this.

Señor Cruz is busy with his all-day siesta today, maybe we'll see him put on a hi-vis at some point in the next week and break the news to us.

It was announced that all your TPs and avios were to be given to the first person who answered your post. No further announcements made.

There has previously been speculation of a new "Concorde Card" and I do wonder if that is what the GGL is about to morph into.

Anyone else heard anything?

Anyways folks ... back on original topic with OP @HFHFFlyer,
Can your Premier Dinner friend back in February shed any more light?
