While I agree overall the changes are positive, yet I find there to be a large devaluation for Europe based members, it seems that all awards leaving europe have increased in value including Asia. I can't believe you can fly from New York to Singapore via FRA for less miles than FRA-SIN.
I am honestly a little disappointed, now to decide if I book tickets before October first or not.
Very appreciated of the heads up though, truly world class communications from Continental.
Cheers,
Timo
