Our partners Etihad Airways generously sponsored the Bradman Ashes Dinner held by the Britain-Australia Society in July at the Long Room in Lord's Cricket Ground, donating two Pearl Business Class tickets in the raffle. You can see pictures of that event here. 

We have received a nice letterfrom Etihad (see here) and want to pass on a very special upgrade offer that the airline has made to our members and friends, along with a valuable tier-match for frequent flyers.
