Just go to this site, www.indo.com/distance, and follow the instructions to get the air distance between any two points. Then go to the QANTAS site to determine how many zones that will be after the 25th of May. In many cases this is going to come as one very big surprise as the number of points needed has gone up like a bloody sky rocket. It is Not just a matter of making the miles flown line up better with the points. QANTAS appears to have embarked on a deliberate campaign to minimise the number of FF points it has to carry on its books by simply requiring members to outlay a lot more points for the same routes flown and then, believe it or not, charging even more if you have to go to them for assistance.
