Youngest starts university in 2011 so a good time to burn some miles (not tied to school vacs any more!) so looked at mid October (after he has succesfully navigated freshers week)

Spent some time on ana and suprised on the CPT J availability !! So rather than come straight back saw

2 x J SA - LHR - CPT
2 x J SA - CPT - SAO

Dec 30 - took 15 minutes to book - most of that time was taken up with loading taxes - very efficient but did not catch (his) name and on CMT straight away.

All Miles - 97.5 K pp
Taxes - 452.00 UK pp

Will meander down to BUE via Iguazu (will pay cash as pretty cheap flights and no J availability) not sure on return from BUE yet saw some LH F availability (even though I have quite a few miles - still a miser when it comes to 2.5 x Y ++++ with LH) BUT will wait and see if LX F (via SAO) opens up or might even try TAM again via SAO

Happy 2011
