op, are you paying for their hotel or anything else?[/quote]

Yes. We are paying for all pre- and post-cruise hotel nights for everyone in Athens. DH is covering everything with free night certificates and hotel points. Airfare is trickier b/c United seems super stingy with upgrades and FF mile options to IAD-ATH, especially since we had already “purchased” 4 seats round trip. [/quote]

Yeah, we've had trouble purchasing more than 4 seats with miles before.  Airlines are jerky that way.  We got around it with buying coach and upgrading.  That might work here if he still has miles.

That being said, you are paying for a lot of things, I wouldn't feel guilty at all.[/quote]

Won't work in this case because the grandparents on are a separate reservation from the husband with Global Services status. Only those with GS and maybe 1K status (or with a LOT of Plus points) would be able to upgrade using miles from regular economy. Even then finding upgradeable space on a summer flight to Greece is probably very hard. [/quote]

Valid point, [/quote]
