Well i can see where your coming from but I want the company to stay around not go bankrupt. No point being a member of an airline that's losing money. Their not losing lots of money but they are not making much at all.. Overall i would say small losses.

I think the long term picture..

Just consider how pissed off the Qantas members must be for all the routings that are being canceled now. But i am sure they enjoyed half empty cabins alot of the time.

I doubt there will be that many emerald or higher from mainland China as its still requires connections which most wealthy Chinese don't like that much.

And finally do you hear Asiana members complaining about the hordes or Chinese going through Korea to the US?
