so it's a bit odd because the whole point of the changes is that you give more points to those who spend more, so if you chose to book ba in that case (presumably that may have been a choice AN made before) you are actually better off now then you were under BAEC.
despite that, it seems like moving to a revenue scheme has made him choose a cheaper carrier which i am sure he could have done previously - despite the fact BAC is now supposed to reward those who pay more compared to those of us who may have paid ~£1k for our exEU tatl J seat.
