Emirates Skywards
Anyone else noticed Emirates seem to have changed their earning and spending miles rates/tiers?
Some rates seem to have gone up, some down but upgrades now need way more miles.

Re: Emirates Skywards
Something recent? Because ages ago they really upped the miles needed for upgrades from the cheaper fares...maybe a couple of years ago now.

Re: Emirates Skywards
Yeah seems to be since New Year, or maybe since the new website.
I upgraded on New Year from economy saver LGW-DXB and cost 32,500 miles. Now a whopping 57,500!
Also tried to check miles and tier miles awarded and got different answer.

Re: Emirates Skywards
Didn't hear anything about it but then I don't really follow EK.
Funnily enough a similar question just asked on FT:
Did upgrade with miles rates rise? - FlyerTalk Forums
Maybe it's a system problem or maybe they really have done a no notice devaluation of the program?
