And for what? To sit in a seat and have a restaurant quality meal, some expensive drinks and a bed less comfortable than my bed at home.
How many FTers went to ICN again (I flew Friday early afternoon and got back Monday lunchtime I recall) - whirlwind 48 hours in Seoul, DMZ etc. for more money and fewer TPs
If I can go somewhere interesting that I may otherwise not get to, for a good price and get a stack of Avios and TPs vs. a weekend at home it's no contest
