I think this move is very smart, its obviously geared towards those who dont purchase rev tkts on LY but instead before moving miles/pts to either Matmid or in most cases to Qantas, a person will check 1st to make sure there is say Biz Saver available and when they see it is then move the pts/miles. With LYs move a person wont beable to do that, so either they will have to move teh pts/miles and pray that they will beable to use them or simply stop playing this agme with LY and move to other carriers
With the last what turned out to be 44% bonus in Qantas pts Im suretons of points were moved to Qantas with the entent of cashing in for LYaward tkts, now those folks will be stuck and having to do alot of praying that they beable to eventually beable to find something.
The Winners in all this will be those who fly LY on rev tkts and have the pts in their Matmid acct, since the % went way up that theyd be able to find something when they go to book
In other words the game is getting another strike against it
