And here I was just getting back to the M&M game after a short hiatus.. A bummer, guess it's time to do a 180, reassess the options and burn the remaining miles prior to June.

I don't think even LH intern is daft enough to to just slap a multiplier on the flights and call it a day. That would put an extremely specific monetary value on the miles.

I would expect more so that they will asssign a mileage value to a given fare bucket/zone combination (plus the light/classic/flex level) and you will get the mileage price which corresponds to the availability of a given flight combination.

I am curious to see what the prices for P availability will look like. If it ends up that they are consistently lower than the table price, then the change might work for me.

That’s what I thought too… M&M will be useless. totally a shame

Well, Yes during a devaluation that is the result….

M&L was the ‘affectionate’ term here for Miles and more ….

Miles & Less does have a nice ring to it, not going to lie..

Maybe Turkish should also reconsider renaming their program to Miles & Moans.

Will this also impact the miles required for upgrading into higher class of service?
