Life Time Gold - The [Realistic] Holy Grail

[markis10]

Lowest ever heard was $3,500 what with status runs and DSC

Bring back anyseat rewards I say or Finnair Tag flights ex BKK to SIN or HKG
I am still waiting for my COVID status extension, LTG+6 months LOL

So presumably you won't be earning the full complement of 600 SCs for this rewards booking?

Points only to/from CGK and I earn SCs via QF PC. QR is paid (the $3,5k bit) and earns a reasonable bunch of SCs ex Asía.

So about 416 SCs plus some internal Euro flights for this one trip alone. If I’d lucked in and book the QF reward seats during a DSC, it would be over 500 SCs.

DSC relies on being able to book all your flights during two narrow windows in a year. Impossible for me and I am sure many others.

What if LTG came with DSCs on all future bookings? I know; tell him he's dreaming!

That might just make LTP attainable while I’m still breathing!

You must be quite a lot younger than I!

May as well reduce LTP requirements in that case.

I've just entered the "last leg" of getting LTP by 12 points. Mentally, I've broken it down to 5 x LTG + 5,000 "bonus" points, so into the last LTG. At my age I think it's a bit stupid to go for it, what does it achieve at the end, aged traveller, etc, etc, but I've thought, what the heck!

But the stats/forecasts do look ugly.

My last calc was 90 something to get to LTP. (assuming I maintain WP!) - despite being LTG for 10yrs.

Alas, no heady days of P1 for me along the way…..
