Oh, and a lot of Domestic First without lie-flat.

c. 1,000 TPs, IIRC, which was useful! TR on our last OGG trip in my signature if you want to dig into details.

Edit = ahh, starting in Cork. Delete some TPs and one night stop. Other suggestions sound better!
I'll be 30.5 doing the trip so leaving my youth behind me!! I could start in Dub, extra 20 TPs is always handy (maybe we'll start getting 40TPs on EI codeshares since they've started selling J/middle seat blocked/AerSpace)

I'm thinking forget the lie flat on the final leg and go ORK/DUB-LHR-JFK overnight in LAX then LAX - HON

as an aside, it's still conflicting 210 vs 140 TPs on transcon F, can anyone confirm? I.E. if transatlantic is booked A and transcon F we still get 210+210?
