Oh, please, I'm not worried about that.
Just the Gold and Plats (of which there are much more) stealing our domestic upgrades through the 4 hour loophole...
This year I don't have the time. I've already booked (or taken) vacations in North America and I haven't yet become crazy enough to do an MR, much less ian MR nternationally....but there is always next year as I should get 8 more.
Well, if you can spare to take one day off, a
great short trip that's a good use of the VIPs is to EZE -- I assume you're a short hop away from JFK -- the JFK-EZE flight is over 10 hours long and is very nice in Business Class. Lots of time to eat, drink, sleep and eat, there's virtually no time change so no jetlag, and if you fly down Friday night, you can spend all day Saturday, Sunday and most of Monday in a great city, before flying back in time to go to work Monday morning (late morning if you need a connecting flight). Just a thought!
