Basic summary as I see it:
General consensus is that one will look good in-front of, and should most certainly look down upon the hoi polloi/The Great Unwashed :D Good carriers deliver better service & better Chappers. BMI F redemption rates are really very good indeed. Soon to go. Maybe. Make the most of it. Basically... Do it. Regarding costs - I recently booked the same route:

After some prompting ICC found TG916 departing at 12.30p on the 10th which was available and booked it. In hindsight, TG924 to MUC connecting to LH2504 to MAN would have been more convenient but have been trying all weekend to make a booking and been faced with "'puta says no" so I went for it to lower anxiety levels ) So, all-in, for a return in First Class with TG from UK to SYD was 125,000 miles & £1326 pp. Eye watering for a redemption, but hey, this is a honeymoon and I will probably never get to travel 21k miles in First again anytime soon! |

IMHO, assuming you have suffiecent miles, if you're travelling alone, C is fine. The F experience is best shared. You'll carry memories of a good F trip (LH and the FCT, TK and the red ladies, an LX F cabin all to yourselves) and a shockingly bad one too (UA and their carpet monster) long after you've forgotton about C.

Don't suppose you've got a link to the original UA Carpet Monster post as I can't find it for the live of me although I almost positive I had read it?
