Flying Blue's new tiered award fares treated as a devaluation

What happened

One Mile at a Time's weekly recap highlighted Flying Blue's new tiered award fares and treated them as a devaluation. Alaska Airlines added flights from Seattle to Athens and from Seattle to Paris.

Priority Pass access shrank at Chase Sapphire Lounges, a change the recap called probably good news. Bilt started a Blacklane partnership that puts bookings in the Bilt app and accepts Bilt Cash. Eurowings put a real business class cabin on its entire A320neo fleet, a rarity in Europe according to the recap.

A Flying Blue devaluation hits anyone about to transfer miles. Recheck Flying Blue award prices before transferring and watch Alaska's new flights from Seattle to Athens and Paris.
