Well, that sigh your heard was me. Some airlines are gutting their FF programs, I was wondering when the LAN shoe would drop. If that is the worst they do I have a sigh of relief.
Not that it is good. A 25% drop in V upgradeable fare but for me it will sort of balance off with 25% more in Biz. The 50% drop in Base for long haul international will probably effect me more.
Ya know they have the data and they know exactly how and who this will effect. It tells me the program is still sustainable and just needed a small tweak – good news.
Eastbay has a good question. Each country has some variance in earning rates domestically, can't recall if it varied international.
