Where is the evidence that people have ceased travelling with Qantas due to the change in the FF earnings?
airlines hide such information, but the rise in offers of double status points might qualify. But of course that was QF's Simpler/Fairer devaluation of QFF, which I believe is what the post was talking about.

the consequences for woolworths, if any, of changing their checkout card scheme will be people buying less and using aldi or coles more. as you imply, no one's choosing an airline based solely on the grocery tie in.
