It's about willingly release tons more of CO2 to get status.
AMS-TLL is 914 miles.
AMS-ATH-TLL is 2.838 miles.
TLL-HEL is 62 miles.
TLL-ARN-HEL is 489 miles.
Even if we suppose that nobody here gives a damn about the next generation or the ecosystem, Diner's, Amex, or Priority Pass might be cost-efficient solutions, worth considering.
You forget i actualy like going to Athens. The only actual detour i'm taking here would be TLL-HEL via ARN. But then again, the price is much higher to fly direct.
And me going to greece and spending monney helps their economy. regardles of it being the reason i go.
Are you giving this talk to anyone going to greece for fun?
And no, I dont want a priority pass. Upgrading my amex would cost me 500 / year extra. Much more then taking a vacation to greece.
