Adjusting the TP calculator silently one night just won't cut it.
Indeed, LCA is one that really irks me (particularly because I'm off there in a few weeks time ) If it were changed to 120tps each way in Club per the OW mileage rule, it would make the route quite a nice TP earner on a TP/$ basis, which is probably why they haven't changed it...
At least more tier points would go some way to offset misery caused by the apparently awful 'planes used on this route. Although I am looking forward to my holiday, I am not much looking forward to the flight...
