I work for a big company... the company travel policy for long haul international flight is business class. Who am I to fight the policy? ;-)
But seriously, I don't remember the MQM earning rate for business class vs coach, but even at 50% discount for coach, I would be probably be over both ways... Plus, I don't have SWUs (never picked it due to difficulty using it...and my company would never reimburse me for them if I am able to use it... Thanks for that creative suggestion though. It is definitely doable if I was flying personally...
