I think I should end up with a total of 88,000 miles – does this sound right? Sadly it’s still not enough to get me a return CW trip to west coast USA…

Or have I got this completely wrong?</font>

I dont know much at all about RTW stuff but you could always buy a WT+ ticket to the West Coast, I was looking into LHR-SFO (found fares on ba.com for about £550-£650) and then use 25,000 miles to upgarde to Club World. Seems like a bargain to me.

Now though my miles are being saved up so when I get the 2 for 1 AmEx voucher I can get somewhere half decent in F with any luck.
