My dilemma is:
Just flag WP or do a Status run in J with LAN (AKL-SYD-AKL) & get 160 SPs.($800NZ). Unsure if the cost of $800 is worth going from SG to WP. Should remain SG next year but then with the changes to QFF who knows..
Your thoughts if it were you??
I would do the LAN run as I believe it is worth to keep WP and better, if you fly QF and oneworld, to keep it than to try to earn it all over again, higher points to attain plus you are not getting the benefits of it to attain it.
Of course YMMV on how you value $800.
