I used it a couple of weeks ago too.

It does seem to have vanished from the staff offers page on intraCX. Either that or I am blind.

Checked with the Benefits Centre today... confirmed we no longer have the discount with FedEx. Thanks CX for the heads up. Good times good times...

Yes Mates,

It's official. They showed me the letter at Fedex yesterday. It's one specifically for Cx Staff, discount for all Cx crew has been suspended.

Well mates ,it's gonna be interesting to see how much MORE stuff we will lose this year. We sure as hell ain't gonna get more. Ohh well at least , for the time being, we still have a job.

Keep Smiling, PEACE OUT.

New CIGNA card numbers just issued as well. Is this a degradation of benefits?

The Fed Ex discount was an interline agreement. Not a benefit from our COS.
Fed Ex is losing money too and may have decided to drop the deals for some or all airlines.
I am checking with friends at other airlines to see if they were effected too.

Wonder if Fedex crew ever had interline agreement (ID tickets) on travelling with CX aeroplanes. Suppose that will be suspended too then??

it was Cathay that stopped the interline agreement for FedEx - and they retaliated. Fedex used to do a lot of their company business travel on ID...
