Slightly more domestic free elite upgrades and SkyPriority check in, security lines, and SKY boarding for coach, but the big difference between FO and GM is the SC and partner lounge access when traveling on SkyTeam international itineraries in coach. How often would you use this benefit?

Also, it could help to calculate your redeemable miles earnings for FO and GM under next year's scheme, to add to the miles you would earn from doing a MR or two.

Finally do you *want* to go to JNB for a quick weekend or two? How do you feel about flying Saudia for the trip?
