Some may see it as wasteful when I could have used upgrade certs. However, I wanted to be absolutely sure that we were in the front.

Is it worth it? To me yes. I get to give my mom a taste of intl F without redeeming/spending a boatload of miles/dollars for a F seat, and watch her surprise as she takes her suite seat.
