It will be interesting to see, however, whether planes will be flying with smaller loads this summer due to families being priced out of the reward seats.

If the planes aren’t 90%+ full in a school holiday to a leisure destination the new system has completely failed. If there is any danger of that happening the mileage price should dip precipitously towards the flight time… surely?

Well they arent that stupid. Look at the Dec 2025 dates – prices start at 200k-300k and fall slowly. Effectively its a question of who is desperate.
