Second question - did you do MR for this year to achieve either Plat or Ex-Plat status ? I am torn between trying to get to Ex Plat but it would require at least 3 longs runs of 23-25K miles and 1 short run.. only done 16K miles this year.. any advise ?
I already qualified this year, and I need to go to SE Asia anyways in spring so this just worked out. Even if they change to revenue, I'll still get almost 50k RDM miles for ~700 bucks. I don't NEED to be in jakarta, but i figure i can just grab an air asia flight. I'd prefer if it was KL or SIN, and not CGK, but that seems to be always where the deals are
