I am flying from MAN - LHR with BA next weekend. I have been offered a club Europe upgrade for £59. Is this a good price ? and will it go up or down if i wait? I know its only a short flight, but thought with the lounge access and a quick meal and drink on board i might give it a try.

Any advice as always is welcome.

Personally I'd spend a fiver on some sandwiches / snacks and save the rest of the cash.

But if you needed the extra tier points to get you a higher status then I'd go for it based on the longer term benefits.

Only you know what £59 is worth.

Not worth it IMHO. The actual flight time MAN>LHR is only about 40 minutes anyway. The BA lounge in T3 is often busy as well.

Thanks for all your advice everyone. I decided to go for it, you only live once :D We are going for a special occasion, and we were going to buy lounge access anyway, so, all in all only a few pounds more!!

Thanks again,

Remember Club Europe also gives you a better baggage allowance - 2 x 32kg instead of 1 x23kg ( very useful if connecting to/from an upper flight)

You'll get lounge access at MAN, a light meal on board with bar service, extra Avios and 40 Tier Points. Generally always first off the 'plane too. My last domestic CE flight even had a separate CE bus (as yeah, it was a bus to gate.)

You should do yes, but be warned T3 security at MAN is often a complete zoo!! Fastrak is often not very fast especially in T3.
