My points will run out so need to make a trip. It took a while but I actually did a return trip a few years ago on points and that did cost 30,000 for tax or something. I never thought I'd be priced out of visiting home!
No, I meant 35,000. That's why I typed it. I even copied and pasted it directly from BA.Com, as I know I'm not good with numbers and didn't want to get it wrong.

I mean, you could go there yourself and check it out. It's a whole seven or eight mouse clicks.

The round trip from Tokyo to London came to just under £600 before taxes, so shouldn't be more than £800 after taxes. I've never paid more than £650 for a round trip between London and Tokyo, and would never reccommend that anyone else do either - unless they want to get out of the hold and pay £3,000 for first class
