최근에 체이스에서 Iberia카드가 나오면서 BA avios devaluation을 예상햇는데요
이 예상이 안타깝게도 맞을수도 잇을꺼 같네요.
최근 사우스 차이나 모닝 포스트에서 BA CEO랑 인터뷰를 하면서 곧 revenue-based redemption / earning 으로 바뀔거라는 힌트를 여러개 떨궛다고 합니다
"at the moment we have seen how a number of airlines around the world have changed the way in which they collect points and redeem points to be much more value driven. If the ticket costs £1,000 you get more points than if your ticket cost £100."
"very single payment that is made in BA through every channel – baggage, seats, upgrades, tickets themselves – can be paid with Avios"
"The point we are moving to is that if there is a seat for sale, you should have access to it. You should make a decision how many points you use and how many money you pay."
이제 에어라인이고 호텔이고 기차든 모든게 다 revenue-based로 바뀌는 추세인거 같습니다
