Hello

so I need 5k more tier points to get my GGL renewal for the year and I'm going to holiday in DXB with my family (3 others).

i have my joker left and also two companion vouchers.

id normally book three on my joker in A or D and then book myself a holiday for 1 in F or D return. So long as the room is permitted to take 4 it's never been an issue doing it that way for me and I get 100% of the tier points (that's not the question here).

my issue is A and D are expensive on my dates and the hotel is over £5k anyway. I can't get the tier points with hotel only and I can't use my companion vouchers unless I'm on an avios booking.

so was thinking about an economy + hotel booking to qualify for the tier points plus 4 x A or D on the same flight using my joker and two companion vouchers.

Will I be able to check in on both the A/D and economy seat to ensure I get the tier points?

Any ideas welcomed and no I'm too old, fat and used to turning left to sit in economy with the family up in club.
