Well if your business takes you to MAN the last week in June, I will be there for a trade show for a couple of days, I usually fly over a sat night and give myself one day to recoup.
look at it this way princess, it's approx. 9K miles to MAN (MSY-EWR-MAN) with your plat elite, RT you will earn roughly 20K miles. So, it's either a wash on a 1-way UG or just 20K miles to UG RT.
If you look at it that way, it might seem more palatable.

You know Manchester is hosting the Commonwealth Games in July? It's like the Olympics for the British Empire. So if you are there then, make sure you got a hotel reservation!
