QF was not generous during SARS, don't recall any specials or reductions, but they did renew based on your multi-year history (not just for SARS year) as an informal policy. I would imagine they will do something formal, maybe double SC for an extended time once services resume. They certainly DO NOT want to thin out the numbers of WP as this is the most profitable part of the airline (maybe the only profitable part for a while). How best to extract value from FF plan is probably a priority now for most airlines.
