Economy: On Jet Airways - 100% of *TPM, on JetKonnect - 75% of TPM
Première: On Jet Airways - 150% of *TPM, on JetKonnect - 150% of TPM

*TPM - Ticketed Point Mileage

For codeshare flights where Jet Airways /JetKonnect are marketing carriers and operated by partner airlines, minimum miles will not be applicable and members will earn JPMiles as per the below mentioned accrual structure where JPMiles will be credited basis Ticketed Point Mileage (TPM).

So the new redemption chart is out..

http://www.jetairways.com/doc/Mileage-Chart.pdf

Domestic redemptions have actually decreased across many metro sectors.. BOM-DEL is now 17k/8.5k in Y/J compared to 21/10.5. Similarly BOM-BLR is now 13/6.5 and BOM-MAA is 15/7.5

International redemptions have shot up but the YQ is fully taken off.. Cant search for the new redemptions and YQ charges yet.

I am guessing they should also be affected upwardly.

Time to dump!

Time to off load this load of crap and move to BA. Even with the surcharges taken off, there is no justification for the level of increase in the miles required for international redemptions! They'll be having more empty planes now. I think they listened to the complaints that people aren't ever able to get redemption seats, well there will be plenty available now

Thanks Anish for the chart link.

Horrible news for those of us who redeem premium cabin international.

Yup! DEL-HKG, DEL-SIN, DEL-LHR, DEL-YYZ etc all go up by at least 50% or more!!

What just made my jaw drop is that a BOM-EWR in F now needs 450k miles for the round trip!

These enhancements are a result of continuous feedback from our valued members like you to improve the value of JPMiles and to simplify the redemption charges structure.

Haha.. Straight on our heads ! On one side airlines are offering discount on fares and people are travelling for cheaper that AC rail fares, on the other side they want their frequent travellers to go away to something else.

I am looking at the new redemption chart. Does it make sense to use JP Miles for Economy redemption in International sector?

For eg: currently for economy redemption BOM-BKK one needs 20K miles + ~7.5K INR one way, which becomes 22.5K miles + ~1.5K INR

Similarly for BOM-SIN sector, currently one needs 20K miles + 10K INR one way, which changes to 30K miles + ~2K.

May be it makes sense to use JPMiles for last minute international economy redemption rather than business/first.

I'll probably end up finding better 9W redemption value on domestic Indian 9W flights than on my international trips in coach or business after this latest 9W devaluation hits in full.

my back of the envelope calculations... internationally you got about 1 INR value per mile in premium cabins. now, it is dropping to 0.75 inr. and I am talking long haul segments. this is because while the fuel surcharge is similar in F/J/Y, the changes are multiplying as per CoS (2x of Y miles in J, 3x in F). so the economy guy is better off, and the non economy guy, i.e., premium cabin is worse off.

Barring the redemption on premier/ first, overall I feel the change is for better. For instance, for BOM-SIN, one has to pay 10k extra miles for saving of 8K in taxes - in other words, jet is already giving 0.8 paisa per mile, which is not bad IMHO.
