New BA World Traveller and World Traveller Plus sale launched

British Airways has launched another round of sale fares, this time focussing on World Traveller and World Traveller Plus.

This new batch of deals needs to be booked by July 8th.

There is nothing available for North America except for the Gatwick flight to Las Vegas.  However, if you are heading elsewhere in the world then you might find something of interest.

A full list of desinations and travel dates (valid into 2015) can be found in the terms and conditions here at ba.com.

As usual, the British Airways Low Fare Finder tool at ba.com is the easiest way of quickly seeing the lowest possible price to a selected city by month.

It is also worth keeping an eye on ex-Europe departure points.  Reader Richie dropped me a note to say that he had booked Brussels to Delhi via London in World Traveller Plus for £603.  He had upgraded this to Club World for 25,000 Avios points return plus another £57 of tax.  This was for travel during the Easter holidays as well.

My guide on how to use the ITA Matrix software tool to quickly search all possible European departure points can be found here.
