Remember in EU we get some pretty good deals in J. For example we have had quite a number of EU-Australia deals this year between £1400-£1800 rt in J so actually spending miles isn't always the best deal.
Thanks for the info pogonation. I was always under the impression if I'm spending the money anyway I might as well earn points and avoid spending however much on the ticket (especially for international business). Though with BA when I was in YVR the LON taxes sucked a lot of fun out of it. haha
Was hoping there was another option other than M&M if I liked in Swiss...I'll look at the Amex Gold
