Not arguign the value any more - it all makes a lot more sense now I have been through the earn/burn calcs myself (I am an auditor so trusting other peoples calcs is always a challenge for me).
Given that I dont plan to be in the UK until 2008 - I reckon I will probably have the 240K points for 2 j class tickets (mind you by then there might be a little sim around so we will definitely need business).
Now I finally understand the eVIP I have to work out how I can use them best. Given that I wont hit Exec Plat until late 2007 at the earliest (subject to other changes) I dont think I need to worry about them for a while
Thanks alot for your help over the past few pages/weeks talking me through this. It has certainly helped me understand it all a lot better and helped me make my decisions
