i still agree, its stupid if they don't limit it in any way but doubt it will have consequences for any current HON...
Hmm, I'm afraid that a whole new generation of "Cessna HONs™" (true "HON lite") is about to be born, and we're not talking about a "very limited" group of people!
LH has deliberately taken into account this. Otherwise they wouldn't have included HON miles in this offer. Including HON miles means that they explicitly count on the appeal of the "HON factor" in their marketing campaign, and good professionals should definitely take into account extreme scenarios, like getting to have 500-800 extra "Cessna HONs" due to this campaign, and who knows how many others who were 100K short, and didn't find it worthwhile money- and time-wise.
Heck, people were doing this with the good ol'e "HON RUN" for several wasted weekends and 25K EUR less in their bank accounts. Why not doing this for 1/3 of that money and much less time?
