What I do not understand (apart from the much-predicted corporate panic/posterior covering) is the timing. I would have seriously considered trying to retain GGL if all this had been in place at the start of the year, despite being leisure travel only now, but the year has almost gone. If they allowed renewal of GGL after it had lapsed for a year at 'normal' numbers of nTPs, then it may be worth a go. But the 50% premium makes it impossible. I suppose I could try and get to 40,000 nTPs next year and then beg.
