My point is if you want to do that, don't be promoting your stuff with Americans.

Right now, all indications are before it was 50K RT in economy to HKG, now it will take 100k or 120K for the same trip . Absolutely not acceptable.

BA has a right to change their program but offering 50% transfer than 2 months later devalue everything is sinister. I want options to have my MR points back.

If you are talking about West Coast - HKG using CX, where did that change?

The examples BA listed I believe were for redemptions from LHR to different destinations. Did amounts for partner awards change?
