With RFS you should still be able to get 1p+ per avios on a lot of routes in economy. For example, an economy redemption to Buenos Aires is 80k avios + £250 and £1050 is already close to the floor for cash prices with tickets going above £2000 for some dates. With the 241 you would be paying £250 to save £400 or more.
