You mean, no more F awards, as per agent - repeated 2x: "no, all have been already given out...." (Even when I told her that she could check 1 year out, and didn't specify a flight! :eek: )

BA isn't that bad though. 2.5 returns in Economy give you enough miles for an upgrade to UK. Jet in 2.5 UK flights will only give you enough miles for a return upgrade to Bombay.

You mean 9w only gives you a domestic return upgrade, right? :p

She told you no more First rewards?

Even I have a booking for a flight within the next week and have been trying for the last 2 months to get a second seat confirmed through miles and the agent told me two days back that even though I was the only one with a seat in the First cabin the second upgrade had no chance of clearing as they don't allocate First rewards anymore aside from some very dead flights. :td:

If the flight is going empty then why not!!! :td::td:

jet is terrible with this....all these recent policies are due to the current gm....i can't seem to remember his name....he has made it extremely difficult to redeem miles & use vouchers for upgrades....

The CRE I spoke to was more straight forward she just said that we don't give rewards anymore in First. Only allocated on extremely quiet flights and that too 1 seat.

things are bad....personally i'm not affected since i know the people higher up at jet....but that doesn't change the fact that things are bad....

there might be a way to get around it....if we can get 30-40 people to sign a petition stating how much business they give jet & how disappointed they are with the current situation then i can personally make sure it gets to naresh goel....

I'm in - but I have been complaining for so many years now...

NG also hid in the cockpit when his allocated seat was in front of me and an office area neighbor who flies to/from DEL like almost every 2-3 days in C...he managed to grab him and give him some feedback - maybe that's why he ran and hid! :p :cool:

i would need details like either jp numbers or snapshots of the activity page showing how many flights you have taken....if everyone can email this to me then i can draft a letter & get it approved by everyone before i hand it over to mr. goel....
