That is not so bad since Gold safe till mid next year and Silver/Gold diff getting smaller. Thinking is probably worth it since also going for lifetime SEN and this would go a ways toward it. However if I don't make it then have to do full SEN in either of the next 2 years and have neglected other programs. Any thoughts and ideas welcome.
So what's HON worth to you? If you'd be flying LH&CO for the 175-200k miles anyway, you're just 100k miles short. That can be done in a couple days with a sub 3k EUR budget. Miles alone should be worth 1k, vouchers another 1k and just in case you have a 2 year SEN soft landing afterwards. All in, about 1k EUR and a couple days flying for real reason for a chance to meet Hon Adreas, not bad at all.
