True. But there are some that now only (re)qualify because Y flights count as well towards HON. I am one of those. I ran my XLS sheet and whilst there were years where only on J and F flights I had >2,500 QPs, there are other years where without the Y flights I would not have requalified. I did, because the J and F flights that I did were accounted for by the distance method, but now that they change to points, only J and F would have left me short. Hence, as the move from distance miles to QPs goes along with counting Y flights, I am fine.
