When I book and pay for WT+ (Europe-Johannesburg), it usually costs me around £1000. I use 30K miles to upgrade to Club. Being Gold I get more miles awarded, so around 22K miles are redeposited to my account.
It costs me 8000 miles to fly CW ^
But those miles that are deposited in your account are included in the GBP 1,000 price of the WTP ticket. Accordingly I think they can be excluded from the analysis.
