Hello! I've never done a TP run before so I'm looking for a few pointers on optimising a trip to Nairobi. I need to be there by 14th-18th Nov but can travel a bit before/after.

I'm Gold with a Sept year date. I should have 680 TPs for my 23-24 collection year by the end of October. Ideally, I'd love to get the remaining 820 TPs to get back to Gold with this trip. Annoyingly, BA doesn't offer any cars/hotels in Kenya, to take advantage of the double TP offer. I've tried calling but nothing doing.

So far, I've found decent prices going ex-EU from MAD/HEL/IST/SOF either on QR or BA, bundled with positioning flights + hotel from LON to the departure point to take advantage of the double TPs offer.

Is there a better way to do this? Any advice greatly appreciated!
