I am one of those who have made and maintained TG Gold by flying predominantly in Y. Mainly just Y in leisure, and some work travel I have paid the fare difference between Y and J (company only pays for Y in most cases.

But it is not easy AKL-BKK-AKL gets 9000 miles in K and 12000 in Q. And Q is becoming quite expensive.....

I would need 4 such leisure trips in a year unless supplemented by work trips.
