Tier Point Run Question - 150 to San Sebastian....
Advice very gratefully received. I'm trying to get my head round the best way to do this.
I've got to be in San Sebastian, Spain (so Bilbao or Biarritz best options) on Friday 5th October at about 10am. I can leave any time on Thursday afternoon to get there in best way to earn 150 TPs.
Ideally I would fly back to London/UK direct on Sunday evening....
Is this even possible or should I just go for a separate TP run with no specific destination?
Thanks anyone who has any ideas.

The only way to get over 150 TPs is to go to Biarritz via Madrid. IB domestic flights only earn 20 TPs in J, so BIO and San Sebastian are out. I can see it for Ł382 for your dates, which isn't too bad for 160 TPs, if you need to go there anyway. That has Thursday night in Madrid though, unless you can get away with leaving London earlier in the day on Thursday.

San Sebastian has an airport which certainly used to have Iberia flights to/from MAD ... The airport isn't particularly near San Sebastian ( it's beside the French border ) , but if you did the above but returned San Sebastian - Madrid - London that would get you a few extra points to potentially make it 160 ( Though as noted below my maths is not correct .. should be just 140 in this case )
