Ansett to honour frequent flyer promotion
Ansett Australia will honour points earned under its frequent flyer program to all Singapore Airlines passengers until 30 June 1996 following action by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission."Ansett has offered court enforceable undertakings to allocate Ansett Australia Frequent Flyer points to participants who have flown any class of Singapore Airlines flights," ACCC Chairman, Professor Allan Fels, said today."Information circulated to award program participants in Ansett's Travelling Life magazine and its Member's Mini Guide had indicated that points would be awarded for Singapore Airline flights, although the detailed terms and conditions of the program did not allow points for economy class passengers."The ACCC considered the Travelling Life promotion and Member's Mini Guide booklet were misleading or deceptive.
