William and Kate (I’m not good with formal titles, sorry!) were flying back from Los Angeles to London on British Airways a couple of nights ago in first class, when their in-flight entertainment system wasn’t working.
Customers were offered the choice between frequent flyer miles or a duty free voucher. William and Kate each received a $300 duty free voucher.
Interesting, I would have thought they were trying to build miles towards their next free (heavily fuel surcharged) ticket…

@LA Backpacker Chick - Their flight was actually 10th July. I was on it too. BA posted me £30 of duty free vouchers because I gave an AAdvantage number, but I asked for that to be revoked in favour of BAEC miles. You should be able to do the same
me too! I can't believe they don't have their own plane. They're not keeping up with the royal Joneses.
Kind of surprised that British royalty doesn't fly private....
Worse, they flew over from LHR, across Canada and to LAX on a Canadian military A310 -- no miles earned!
I hope BA give me a voucher in my next flight! Yea...
