Increase of miles needed for OW redemptions

Hello! I just found out that Latam Pass increased the numbers of miles needed for OW partner flights.

https://ingenierodemillas.com/2019/0...hay-una-buena/

I haven’t received any email, I’m a Chile based member.

Biz class for long haul (SCL-Europe) went from 87,500 to 96,250. Not terrible... but still a devaluation.

I read on that blog that there is actually a decrease, for routes such as SCL-MIA. So on the balance, good for some, bad for others.

What do you think?

I think that the article is inaccurate.

For me to redeem JFK-GYE which i frequently now its 31,250 except for June 15- August 19th where it's 40,500.. On the article it states (trip of that length) that it was something completely different, going to something different.

JFK-LIM is 31,250 all year long. If article was correct it would be over 40 something

It is referring to OW partner flights, not LATAM flights.

Thanks! It's a reminder that miles devaluate over time, as any currency,
