Updated Asiana chart

As of Jan 1, 2012, Asiana changes Air Canada's status miles earnings to Asiana's milage club.

I have updated the chart to reflect the changes. The same info can be found on Asiana's US website.

Basically, it is giving Air Canada the finger on their new changes. All economy class now earns 50% regardless of latitute fares or Tango+ fares when it comes to international flights.

Domestic flight is a flat rate 250 miles unless you are in C,D or Z then you earn 100% status miles.

Changes seem to discourage domestic flyers from running to Asiana due to Air Canada's recent change. To further stab AC, they encourage all internaitonal passengers who are Asiana club members to fly UA or US airway or Asiana instead of Air Canada.

The strategy seems to be poach the International Flyers but discourage the domestic heavy flyers ones from migrating to Asiana. Not a bad strategy...

Asiana has a easy way to get StarGold. 40000 status miles every TWO years.
