In the end, this is the fare I booked for the trip I sought your help on:
Ticket 1
Aug 8 YOW/YUL/LHR - AC 8868/864
Aug 14 LHR/YOW - AC 889
$1009.01
I did not ask what class it is given that I am only able to upgrade from Y, it became all about price. I will ask at the counter to go up front anyway - works about 30% of the time.
Ticket 2
Aug 9 LHR/ARN - SK 526
Aug 14 OSL/LHR - SK 511
$362.32
I also have 6 hours in London to go to Marks and Sparks to stock up on new underwear

before returning to the very crowded MLL in T3
Thanks again. $3100 is alot to save and while I'll be in the back of the bus, I'll get full Q miles and be Elite one more year
If you are in YYZ for the Do in Exile, I hope to buy a drink or two for all above who helped
