i'm doing the AUH - LHR on the 20th of Jan in first ( on a 241 amex ). It leaves at the ungodly hour of 02.25 arriving from MCT. I'm wondering whether to spend the few quid on AUH - MCT - AUH in first for the 360 points. Can I effectively do the three sectors on the same airplane, checking in at AUH for the subsequent three legs?
Will I have to de-plane at MCT and then again back at AUH?
Ideally if I could check in for the 21.15 ( I think ) departure to MCT and then treat it as one single flight with stops at MCT and AUH I'd do it. I will have checked baggage if thats significant.
Many thanks for any input.
