JL is awful too:
Full-Fare Economy Y, B 100% – 1.00
Discount Economy H, K, M 70% – 0.50
Discount Economy L, V, S, G, O, R 50% – 0.50
Discount Economy N, Q 30% – 0.50
So not only do they gimp your base miles, but then they chop your EQMs in half on top of that. 15% total EQMs?
No, the chart now lists EQMs per mile flown, NOT EQMs per base mile. So JL bottoms out at 0.5 EQM/mile flown, which is an increase on the cheapest fares.
In fact, every partner I've looked at bottoms out at 0.5 EQMs on all non-zero-earning fares, so that's an improvement on EQMs cheap fares on JL, QF, what was previously announced for BA, and a substantial improvement over the EQPs (which were as low as 0.5*0.25 = 0.125 for QF, for example).
