Devaluation of WF flights
I see for my last WF flights in Economy that I have only been awarded 125/250 EB points on domestic earning routes, as opposed to 312/625 points (includingEBD Bonus) which I got earlier. This appears to be a new "enhancement". Have not flown full fare C on WF since the apparent change, but will do so next week.

Ohh, this has not been picked up by myself either, I don't fly much WF these days.
New earnings table:
Full Flex & Flex Economy
Points fr. 750 - 2000
fr. 100* - 1000
Classes C, D, Z (200%)
J, Y, S, B, P, A (150%)
E, M, H, Q, W (50* - 100%)
U, K, L, T, O, V, G (20* - 50%)
20% earnings on the lowest fares is very bad, though we have seen a steady decline of WF benefits since SK sold the company. The separation is becoming more and more obvious, but I hope also SK see the value in WF feed especially in the north of Norway.
I guess WF will compete directly with SK when they get their jungle jets next year, let's see where this goes.

The good thing for me who qualifies on flown flights not points, is that even the 20 % fares counts as flights flown for the 45/90 needed for EBG/EBD.
They seem to keep the benefits for domestic flights, though. They even announce priority boarding for EBG/D nowadays!
