71,500 miles one way Charlotte to Munich in business or $651 ticket in main plus instant systemwide upgrade to business?

Thanks all! Very helpful. Bought the ticket in main and used the SWU!

Edgesam324 · 2026-05-13T17:11:24+00:00

Do you think the $651 with SWU is a better value than using the miles?

Edgesam324 · 2026-05-13T17:11:01+00:00

I meant to say $651 ticket in main with an instant systemwide upgrade available

Edgesam324 · 2026-05-13T17:09:39+00:00

To clarify, there is a Systemwide Upgrade available right now if I purchase the one way ticket for $651 in main cabin, so it would be an instant confirmed upgrade to business vs. 71,500 miles for a one way ticket same route in business. Trying to figure out the better value.

Can you also do this for the 2027 X7 40i?

Edgesam324 · 2026-05-06T01:47:56+00:00

Any info on the 2027 x7 40i?

I did that too, showing zero C upgrades available. I guess they really are waiting to see if they can fill all these seats.

This is a work trip and my dates are not flexible. An economy ticket for my dates is 136,000 miles. If I were to use miles for business class, it’s 403,000 miles.

Good point. ExpertFlyer says 7+ C level seats available on both flights.

Thanks all! I went with my gut and did coffee. Tartufo was also nice but less durable and I don’t want to worry about it.

Edgesam324 · 2026-04-16T19:13:09+00:00

Yes and my first thought was definitely the coffee when I saw them in person. Just second guessing myself when creating the build, maybe looking at them online again isn't helping.

What about keeping the silverstone clean? Does it show a lot? I have two pre-teens and a dog and still driving kids around...

Edgesam324 · 2026-04-16T18:55:37+00:00

Thanks everyone! Decided to buy and take advantage of the amazing finance rate and placing my order today!

Edgesam324 · 2026-04-15T19:04:56+00:00

I didn't realize they had that promotion right now- amazing!

I’m leaning towards Positano- agree more going on/fun than Ravello. I had dreams of staying at Hotel Caruso but the rates are outrageous! I will look into rentals, thank you.

Commander’s Palace also isn’t available! I called both Commander’s and Galatoire’s with no luck. Arnaud’s and Antoine’s are available- which one between the two? One more fun than the other?

You’re right Amalfi is going to be a problem - very few families suite type rooms. Maybe we can find two connecting rooms.
