You need to get to/from Dublin at the start and finish (if you have Avios already then RFS is your friend for positioning - you'll earn plenty with these trips).

So £2K + hotels for 720 TPs

You'd need to do that four times = £9K or £10K

Given that you have Gold already that is a hell of a lot of money to get a Concorde lounge card (2 lounges), some upgrade vouchers, partner cards (1 x Gold, 2 x Silver), 2 x jokers and access to the GGL line

The upgrade vouchers and jokers might get you a few thousands pounds of value, and the partner cards might be useful to friends/family, but not sure I'd value GGL at £10K over Gold?
