I guess you're right, Empress, $4700 is a bit much for a mileage run. However, I did close a sizeable contract on this trip, so that helped justify it.

Of course, the real reason for the trip is MILES!! A few high fives and glasses of champagne in the LHR MLL to celebrate a successful trip. But that was nothing compared with the feeling of satisfaction upon seeing those 12500 Q miles and 26000 base miles posted.
