Increased SCs?

[reubenb]

Hello! Long time reader but first time poster.

Is the Earning Points Calculator wrong or has it changed?

Adelaide - Sydney one way discount economy returns:

Base points 725
Cabin bonus for travelling in Discount Economy Class -
Status bonus awarded for your Gold membership 544
Points that can be earned for this journey 1,269
Status credits that can be earned 30
​

But I thought it was 15...?

It does the same thing for Adelaide - Melbourne - was 10 but now 20?

I'm 100% sure I'm clicking one-way and not return... return shows 60 SCs for ADL-SYD return and 40 SCs for ADL-MEL return.
I don't have double SCs.... (even if I did it shouldn't appear in the calculator..)

Any ideas??

Welcome to AFF.

Yes it is incorrect. This was first reported here a few days ago.

It appears to be a programming bug introduced at the same time more economy fare buckets were moved to earn full SC's.

If you are booking nothing but red e-deals, simply halve the total! :idea:

True. But now I'm 200 off Platinum instead of 20...
