Otherwise have a totally FFP sterile ticket - enter lounge by flash card, not claim any baggage or priority check in/priority boarding
Maybe they know their Christmas traffic's locked in.
I don't have a travel agent for personal travel but maybe i can get my corporate travel agent to do it
The one I am thinking of is my Christmas/NY ticket I have been holding directly with CX and rolling over every 21 days and its only the outbound that is in 2025. It actually originates in Europe in a non-LHR port and its J and I don't check bags so I don't really get anything with the number. The only benefit of the number is being able to roll it thus far. Not the end of the world if I lose the 100 SPs for 2027 membership purposes but its just annoying on top of the 400+ SPs I lose for those purposes already since my year isn't Jan to Dec. Another shafting due to off calendar year cycle.
