But that fare is a B fare and if I am not mistaken doesnt that mean since I am Gold that we would automatically be moved up to first for both flights.

If thats true, I am wondering if I should book it now, or if it means economy, I guess the fares gotta drop at some point I am thinking as its insanely high, but if it means first class, maybe it makes sense for us to do it now.

Appreciate any thoughts everyone.
