Would you spend $750 extra to travel business class on those flights ? how much is a discounted business class fare in relation to the fare that you would pay
How much do you value yout time as to waste a couple of days just sat on an aeroplane to Tokyo, hanging around in Tokyo and flying back
Does it actually sound sane to spend $3000 to improve the change of getting an upgrade domestically
