Why show 9 when only 5 seats in the cabin anyway.

Colin, I'd be happy to list my itinerary but I won't start it until mid-October with the MRU-LHR hard-won flight. Until I actually get the ticket in my hand, I'm reluctant to post an itinerary that may not happen. If you remind me then, I'll gladly list my itinerary. As a precursor to that, I'll note that they do seem to accept flying through LHR on the way to and from MRU-- a matter that has been questioned in the past. Thus one can (apparently) do MRU-LHR-DXB-LHR at the beginning and HKG-LHR-MRU at the end (or vice versa) thus boosting both the real First segments as well as the mileage total.
