CX : LGW -> MLE - 2,200 GBP in J roundtrip [Tier Run]

Spotted on flights:

https://www.google.com/flights?lite=...6*2.GBP.238776

Technically not the best price for flights to MLE in J. However, the routing is really wonky on this flight (what should be a 10 hour non-stop flight is around 17 hours on this itinerary) leading me to believe that it may be a good run just for racking up the Tier Points on BA and/or EQD on AA to make the added cost more worth while. I can't comment on the quality of CX service on these routes nor anything specific to the accrual since I'm not a OW flyer.

Safe Travels,

James

16 hour layover in Hong Kong. I could enjoy that!

The fare only permits doing two legs with a transfer in HKG, so not very useful, unless actually having a holiday in the Seychelles.

This isn’t very useful for a holiday in the Seychelles either.
