Might use some Avios for a side trip
All great.. I just realized 50% MQM on cheapo SV tickets.. So back to the drawing board
A Saudia international business class ticket should be good for entrance into any SkyTeam partner operated lounge, include Saudia's own lounge. Why was a bribe needed? Just show your boarding pass.
