Europe Status Credit earn

[RB]

Have tried to absorb previous topics. We wish to travel to Europe ( Sydney to Milan, flexible routing) in June for approx 3-4 weeks. Members of QFF, 1 gold, 1 bronze. Perhaps BA WTP is good option to boost status credits. Few booking websites seem to have WTP prices. Any suggestions on routings and maximising points & credits. Flexible in dates & times-maybe use points to Asia then purchased tickets. Thanks for any ideas.

With BA WT+ you don't have much choice with routing. Its going to be SYD-SIN/BKK-LHR in WT+ and then Eurotraveller for LHR-MXP.

You can often find WT+ fares through www.bestflights.com.au and I expect other similar sites.

You can get some (and I emphasise some) good deals ex-SIN for BA's WT+. Whenever they come up, I have a friendly CSA in QF SIN Res who lets me know...

Also don't forget that BA fly into two of Milan's airports. MXP and LIN.

And also sometimes good prices ex other Asian cities. Have a look around.

WT+ is a nice product. Am just on the way back to Oz after flying WT+ mixed with other flights.

Your own mini cabin, better seats with more legroom, no issues with recliners annoying you, first pick of economy meals, and the perception of more attentive staff (They wander past a lot more than in Y).

And of course full Y status credit earning, with a 10% cabin bonus on points.
