There is hardly any reason to put miles into KE program going forward.
- High Award fees
- High miles requirements
- Lower quality First and Biz class compared to other Asian airlines
- No more lifetime to work towards
I thought the SQ miles devaluation was bad enough but KE made it so that it costs even more miles and more award fees than SQ with a worse product than SQ.
Dont know what KE is thinking...
They're just following the industry model. Everyone is devaluing. Outside of Alaska Air, is there anything that is super attractive anymore?
