475SC to Platinum!!!

[Ben174]

HI All
So i have 475SC to go to get Platinum by 31st Jan.

I will probably have at least 160, if not 240 SC definitely earnt by then. So trying to work out a run from MEL that will net me between 235 and 315 SC ?!?! Ideally dont want to use my points so would pay for flights.

I think it would be worth the F lounge, and higher chance of upgrade requests going through as i have at least 2 Y or Y+ flights to LA next year and prob 2 japan trips so i think the benefits would outweigh the cost but still want the best value !

Sorry if i should have posted in a diff thread, if thats the case please move if you can mod, im sorry.

Ben

At least you have plenty of time to get there. So have you though about visiting Fiji or Auckland before?

You can glean enough SC's by booking Business to Fiji for about $1700.

$1700 is a lot for 4 f Lounge visits...

Indeed....

Some people think it is worth it as they can eat and drink that much in 4 F Lounge visits.

Personally I don't think it's worth it but if you must, do a NAN run and leave some of the sectors open for the year after.
