Did you price check on sapphire reserve? Sometimes makes more sense than redemption and surcharges, especially cause youll earn miles

Air france will sometimes be 95k

DL used to be 80,000. But I guess they eliminated their partner sweet spot.

Nah. I'll just do TK for the outbound. Debating whether to do VS or AC for return.

VS kicks with cancellation/change fees as well as CS in general and especially hold times. (Companion discounts are another reason as well if applicable)

Can I add a klm flight to my virgin Atlantic flight so luggage is getting transferred instead of collecting and recheck them?

Called Virgin and they said they can't combine it, but when I checked in to my 1st klm flight the agent was able to tag the bags all the way to final destination

I have Virgin Atlantic Silver status, and have just learnt that it now comes with 1 piece of extra luggage!

Extra Bag Terms and Conditions:
This benefit is for the member only and can’t be transferred or gifted.
Usual baggage acceptance rules apply.
Valid on Virgin Atlantic operated flights only.
Extra bag must weigh 23kg or less.
Extra baggage benefit can not be used for specialist items such as sports equipment or musical instruments.
