So, on my first TP run (AKA holiday to the wife) to LIH, Hawaii on 13th March. We are both have only blue cards and 90 TP's so far.
Anyway, we are flying BRU-LHR/LCY-JFK-LAX-LIH in business/first going out and returning in economy. I make it that we'd be over 300 TP (bronze) by the time we get to JFK and silver for the whole return (8 days later).
How will this work in reality, will we have use of the lounges for the return legs and will the bonus miles for Bronze/silver catch up to the account? Over Christmas it took 10 days to post our miles, hope its quicker this time.
Cant wait to go, Hawaii, in 2 weeks!
