I read this not long ago, and it concerns me somewhat.
Seems to be saying we'll make all seats available for awards (good thing), but significantly increase the number of points required to redeem them (bad thing) - though that (redemption price) part is speculation by someone outside QF.
I think I'd prefer the status quo. I have a bunch of points and I'll plan, within the parameters of QFF, to use them the best way I can (for me).
I certainly don't want the redemption 'price' doubling as is suggested in the article.
Anyway, apart from the fact that the article is quoting GD as saying they'll make all seats available for redemption, the rest is speculation, so who knows what may eventuate.
