And in your case, your gold status automatically allows in your missus anyway
Couldn’t agree more - especially where an ultra-short,
up & down, sector in CE such as BRU-LHR is concerned !
The very idea of handing over 27K avios (+ €110) for this sort of flight is pretty much the perfect definition of anathema to me (even though I currently have a good stash of avios waiting to be burnt). I just think there are so many better uses (and true benefits) to be had.
All that said, it clearly suited the OP ....... so I guess, ultimately, that’s far more relevant than my own perspective.
