Tafflyer You were absolutely correct - many thanks. It is not as bad as I thought. I wasn't quite looking at like for like either but now my calculations show that under the old system I will currently earn 126405 and under the new system those flights would earn 42704. Still a big drop - and still unrelated to Tier Points which I am still pursuing to get to GfL.

Apologies for the wrong figures in my previous post - and note I am not 100% that I have calculated these correctly - it is quite confusing what is and isn't included when you look at what has been paid for a ticket, perhaps that has been POUGd etc. But it is still indicative of the big drop Golds are taking in particular.
