I don’t think anyone is suggesting the Australian market impacts “FF programs” in general. But it certainly impacts QFF and Velocity and probably also has an impact on KrisFlyer (as it seems to be the second most important market for KF.).
i generally, think the pivot to non-CC earning has been ramping up for a while now. People will still be earning lots of QFF and Velocity. If i can earn 200k QFF since Nov from market place, energy retailers, internet, health insurance plus all the possibilities i haven't earned anything from eg wine, home loans etc, availability of rewards is not going to improve.

regular flyers will need to use status to release rewards on QFF metal as they do now.
