I don't know what you guys think, but it's getting pretty bad out there and I'm not sure inessential trips are the best thing to do at the moment. This, despite the current double XPs promotion. I think there's a good chance, if the airlines don't hit total bankruptcy, they will throw some good offers at us next year and hopefully this thing will be calming down by then.
IMHO bankruptcy is a serious consideration these days.
It adds a bit of randomness to all these mileage runs. Aside from Flying Blue rules change, what good is it to rack up XP if AFKL could go out of business within 6 months?
