Yes, to the increased YQ for first class and higher LHR taxes as well. Stop in LHR and your govt taxes will increase as well. Let me know your origin and destination and I can let you know the cost.
The 30K spend is a bit tempting. Basically it means you are buying miles. See how many miles you are saving and double the cost of YQ to see if it worth it. But still keep looking for ways to save by using the miles on partners.
