Having hedged my bets last year with BA Silver and FB Plat I've concluded FB is my better bet so placing all the eggs in that basket moving forward.

I've secured another year at Silver on BA to burn through my miles and a couple of upgrade vouchers, so now need to secure FB Plat again......essentially I need another 200XP before end of April.

I've got a 30XP BC return booked and a Transatlantic which seems to be netting me nothing, lol, KLM MAN/AMS/IAH in economy then AUS/JFK (Delta) and JFK/LHR (VS) in PE.

Having read through here it seems the best option is to look for low cost euro multi hops in Business, add SAFs and look out for SAS plus cheap multi hops, all avoiding domestic legs.

Fair summary or am I missing any other 'best practices'?
