    International Flex Fare = Saver Conditions For Changes

    Platinum - Exit Rows & Accessing Benefits Before Card Arrives?

    Hi Frequent Travellers, My first post so please be gentle - I did search the threads for the answers so apologies if I've overlooked them somewhere. I have just clawed my way to Platinum for the first and probably last time, and got there by the skin of my teeth with barely a week to spare...
