New British Airways sale just launched in World Traveller and World Traveller Plus

British Airways rolled out its Bank Holiday Sale yesterday, which is actually available for booking until May 19th.

Depending on where you want to go, you can book for travel up to February 2016.

The special home page for the sale is here.

The sale ONLY covers World Traveller (economy) and World Traveller Plus (premium economy).  There are no Club World or First Class discounts at present – although you may be able to ‘upgrade using Avios’ and book your World Traveller Plus ticket directly into Club World.

(Of course, the rates for upgrading from World Traveller Plus to Club World were increased substantially on April 28th.  You also need Avios reward availability to be showing in Club World for an upgrade to be possible.)

Here are the summary terms:

Book before 19 May 2016

Travel dates (some exceptions apply):

World Traveller and World Traveller Plus to North America: to 29 February 2016

World Traveller and World Traveller Plus elsewhere: to 11 December 2015

Black-out dates apply.

The easiest way to check out the best prices to a specific destination is with the British Airways Low Fare Finder tool on ba.com. This will show you the cheapest price on any route, in any class, on month by month basis.
