Oh thats the least of my crimes on this trip. I burned a stupid number of points and pay a massive YQ to travel at shortish notice, over Christmas on a specifc & shortest routeing. C'est La Vie. This trip is kind of a "do it before it's too late" deal so needs must as the devil drives. Do I get excommunicated from FT for not creating some fantastic RTW itinerary in J few points a low YQ?
UPDATED TO ADD: The additional 5k AE pts have now been deducted from my account. Ticketing clearly have done their thing.
