Well, how does it post for Elite Members with the normal 160% in Business?
Looking for ARN-IST-BKK-IST-ARN in C
Do you really get over 80.000 miles for that?

I'm really hoping that somebody posts about how quickly the upgrade to E+ happens, and therefore the clock for re-qualification starts.
Would love to not only reach E+, but pick up another 40K before June to lock in an E+ re-qualification.

The Bueno Aires trip is very good value, particularly if you want to go to BAs - which really is a great place to visit.
But it's not very efficient as a "classic" mileage run unless you have time to burn: you need to get to and from Vilnius (which is time and money), and then spend a night in Istanbul on the way out and again on he way back. Admittedly the two Istanbul overnights are at TK's expense, but if you are time poor ....
The blessing is that Vilnius is pretty well served by LCC, and there's a cheap and cheerful airport hotel if connections require that.
ARN is quite easy (for me) to get to. The Bangkok fare prices out quite nicely as an open jaw, returning (in my case) directly to the UK from IST for not too much of a supplement.
Unfortunately the EZE fare refuses stubborbly to price out as an open jaw: well, not in an attractive way

For me when flying premium cabins, if I can score a 5 star hotel for free in a city I love (Istanbul) while having gourmet meals at one of the best lounges out there, I will take the time to do it; but I agree, time is not necessarily available to everyone & this journey is indeed time consuming. Out of the 13 days I'll be gone, 5 days alone are spent in travel from Paris to VNO & then to EZE & then the same for the return.
