I used them as well on business trips. The Miles and a bit of comfort were the reason to take a connecting flight instead cheap direct flights.
As now you earn a ridiculous amount of miles on these tickets I wont't use them any more. Farewell LX, it was nice.
There are so many other airlines to try out.
Status? Yes I will re-qualify with some LX savers in 2012. No milage runs though. Will decide if I will keep SEN. Those cards are overrated anyway.
+1 on all counts. SEN is now good only for the 50% companion award in my book.
I won't send a Swiss cent more to LX (and therefore LH) as of September, I cannot justify it without the miles (especially if the earnings in other FFPs follow quickly).
