Carsten: your interns really nailed this one. They really did. Minus you will sell a ticket less...
In the old (current) system - the flight HAM-FRA-SIN gets you 15.1% (J/F) - here is the devaluation - you only needed to do this 7 times per year vs. new 9 times

For business class - taking the same route and the average (Z) miles it goes from 12 times to new 13 times
