French Open tickets

Does anyone have experience of redeeming miles for tickets to the French Open, including the Hospitality Suite option at Roland Garos ? Thanks.

Not to hijack the thread, but do they offer it at the US open too? They also sponsor that event.

Last year, we were invited by EK, therefore, I'm not 100% certain that it matches the conditions of redeemed tickets.

The seats of the central court were located in the front, on one side of a player. The enclosed box with 30 seats (approx, in a couple of rows) is completely reserved for EK. In front of us, there were only cameramen and wheelchairs.

The EK lounge was located among other big sponsors like BNP or Peugeot, 2 minutes walk from the main court. Therefore, you cannot enjoy the play from the lounge, as for soccer matches. The lounge had seating for 25 guests (approx) for a seated full course lunch served by EK FA.

Goodies were - among others - a straw hat, sunscreen (though not useful last year), seat cushion.

FYI, Guy Forget paid a visit to the EK lounge when we were there.

Again, I don't know if this matches a mileage ticket.
