Good question..but what do you gain from silver?

Maybe you can reserve an entire front cabin to yourself like the sheikh's do..
+1 not worth it imho.
If u work for a living, why kill urself working?

Can you check into the flight with all those seats?
Or do you offer people on the flight free First Class upgrades if they scan your boarding passes when boarding?
That was part of my question... I guess they would scan them... why not? How does it work?
If they don't scan them the system will start offering upgrades. But I'd offer it out - it would get lonely alone in the front.

How about if we lower it to 21000, because I still have FlexEQMs.
21000/3228=6.5
6.5*128=$832

Worth it now?

You sure? Didn't cancel yet...
Is that a professional opinion?

What's the purpose of this? An Aegean mileage run if you haven't made status yet with them?

I heard about that. And I have to go to South America and after pesachto Europe. Would Aegean do well for that?

I've been quite out of things

I don't get the allure of this deal.

1076 X 2 ways X 1.5 = 3228 miles

I would have to do the RT six times to get Aegean gold.

What am I missing?

Actually you can do it 100 times and not get Aegean gold.
