Inheretance and last wishes
Hi all,
I've really enjoyed this forum as a guest for a few years now. I've used all your tips and advice to achieve Bronze with BA this year by flying to (plus) European destinations for double TPs.
Thanks
Sadly I'll lose my Mum this year to Cancer and she has given me a substantial sum to enjoy next year when she's gone.
I've been looking around at various one world RTW deals and knows that's what I'd love to do with the money.
My aim is to travel Club on every leg and optimise the "no club available free upgrade to first" as much as possible. I also want to achieve at least Silver BA status or ideally Gold.
I've not been at all successful in finding a route that works for me. Also to confuse me even more, I have an Amex companion voucher and if I spend 10000 after September on my Amex I'll have another companion voucher.
Starting in London and spending between 10 and 12k ukp, id like to start in Toronto then move south to new Orleans and see Tokyo Japan Capetown. not sure I can even make this happen on the website.
Any tips hints or help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry for your loss. As someone who went through their inheritance a little too quickly, I would urge you make sure to "put away" a good portion of what you have been left and luxuriate with just a small portion.

sparkswillfly, welcome to Flyertalk and sorry for your loss.
As pointed out, the Oneworld forum is a good place to start your quest to see the world in a comfy seat.
Good luck!~
