I hope this gets sorted - that is seriously some serious mileage with an incredible strain on your body - so not to get the mileage credit would seriously suck badly.
It was about 97 hours total from take off to returning to LHR. I left LHR at 915a on Thursday and returned around 1030a yesterday.
LHR-DTW and DTW-LHR were in regular Y, but I had a row of three to myself, so fairly easy to sleep. ORD-CDG was on the 763 in row 17 (bulkhead), so I propped my legs up on my sister's suitcase and was fine. CDG-ORD was a row of three to myself.
