I hadn't thought of that- we've been redeeming miles for the capacity-controlled Business Class level and as a result our upcoming trip to Spain will take place earlier in May than we would have liked. When I book the next trip, if I can't get what we want at the 100K mile per RT in Business, it might be a better deal to try the 125K level in First rather than go to the "rulebuster" 200K level in Business.
