Hi all you SC run gurus.
I do a couple international flights a year to UK or USA in discount Y (been Silver few years). I now have the opportunity for a DONE4 trip in May and had a few questions. I have to get BNE-Washington in a shortish time frame (ie can't spend too much time getting there), and then onwards to Europe (couple days UK) and then 1 day in Sing.
Thanks to this site, I now know I can get to Platinum in one trip. Need about 1100, which is not to difficult for all the way round, and don't really want to accumulate more than that. Just wanted to check that on a DONE4, do I get SCs for a D or an A seat when flying US sectors on AA in A? I was also wondering if I can make it to WP before I get to Sing. If the SCs accumulate by then, will that enable immediate FLounge access in Sing and HKG, or will I need to get wait to get the WP card?
Anyway, here's my first itinerary attempt:
BNE-SYD-LAX-DFW-DCA 40-180-120-90 =430 (SYD-HNL not available dates I want)
DCA-ORD-SEA-ORD-LHR-MAD-LHR 90-120-120-120-60-60 570
LHR-SIN 180
(If I've got the sums right, that takes me to WP...will all those be credited to allow FLounge access after 1 day in Sing?)
SIN-HKG-ADL-BNE 80-120-60 260
(I could just head straight home to BNE from SIN, but have to be in SIN, and wanted to try CX D class. I also looked at LHR-FRA-AMM-DXB-HKG-SIN-BNE, but won't have time for sightseeing eg in Petra, so as I won't make WP1 this year, don't want to accumulate more SCs than I have to)
Could someone check my sums, and/or suggest alternates for racking up the SCs before getting to SIN?
thanks
