  I’m getting ” this offer has ended” when clicking onto the link

    Not advertised yet but the sale fares are definitely loaded in the system. I’m in market for a couple of revenue fares to SE Asia next spring and BA prices this morning are substantially less across all classes than late last night. Don’t get excited though, their fares to BKK exEDI for example, even on sales with seats selected are over twice the price of best available fares across all classes available on the same dates with several other carriers.

    Discounts for avios are again available but not as generous as last time, i was offered £200 discount for 35000 avios compared to £300 for 30000 avios last time.

  See above…

  I was getting excited as I’m in the market for a few transatlantic flights in November and December, then I realised that I’m going to be starting those trips ex-USA to the UK/Europe rather than the other way around! I’ve usually been starting in the UK/Europe but I’ve moved over to the US for a while and I keep forgetting the sales aren’t the same.

  Maybe I can do some nesting and mix with an award flight over to the UK to begin the trip- we’ll see what comes up (and if BA run an ex-USA sale in parallel: I have no idea what happens with ex-USA sales and how/if they operate! Will have to do some searching around).

    I’d also have a look at the AARP discount – lots of coverage on One Mile At A Time, decent discount for ex-US flights plus very cheap to join.

  Very OT. Gave the MIL 10 bottles of Mr Muscle last night which she (strangely) loved. Now there’s some very cheap brownie points.

  • Mr(s) Entitled says:

    23 Aug23 August 07:57

    Christ! I knew it was okay for the middle classes to pretend that Prosecco is the new Champagne but when did drinking Mr Muscle become okay?

      You need to remember where you come from!! 🙂

      When it came with bonus clubcard points 🙂
      I see BA are milking the publicity on the Olympics, flying the team home. Rightly so.
      At least they are doing something right 😉
      I know they come under a lot of flak on this site, justifiably on some of it. But they do do a lot right and as good as the ME3 are at giving a great product my wife still prefers to fly BA F. That may change after flying Etihad in October and hopefully she gets to come into one of the apartments ( I could only book 2)

        My Dad is also looking forward to his Sunday Times Travel Mag sub starting which he got for his birthday. Shh!

      • Mike says:

        How do the seats get distributed for a flight like this?

        • Simon says:

          23 Aug23 August 11:13

          Golds in First, Silver in Club, Bronze in PE….. the rest down the back.

        • Alex W says:

          23 Aug23 August 12:36

          You would need about 40 seats in F then!

      • Hugo says:

        24 Aug24 August 10:21

        Agree its great when BA does these sorts of things!

        I do wonder though whether they did or didnt get the service cuts that were due yesterday…maybe we had some hungry athletes landing at heathrow? 😛

  • harry says:

    23 Aug23 August 09:23

    She might not have been quite so happy if she realised she effectively paid you to get them 🙂

    When I was doing the ELITE stuff with those chatty women, the free stuff was rather embarrassing & the house rather full – my wife actually issued an ultimatum not to get any more or else lol

    • Choons says:

      23 Aug23 August 09:53

      Ha ha, that is a thread I steer clear of now too.

      Instead, I have tons of handwash due to the Cineworld Tesco promo in early summer…

    • Chatty woman says:

      23 Aug23 August 10:05

      Friendly wave from chatty woman.

      You can run but you cannot hide!

      • harry says:

        23 Aug23 August 12:58

        hi there, old squills is alive & kicking

        hope it was me who introduced you to hfp?

        must be a few elite on here

    • Andy says:

      23 Aug23 August 13:38

      Please explain (if you dare!) Elite and chatty women ….. If there’s Avios to be gleaned and all that ….

      • harry says:

        23 Aug23 August 16:19

        as a newcomer you might think they are chatting completely inanely

        you’d be right

        then you’d be completely wrong

        their knowledge of supermarket stuff/ supermarket intelligence is incredibly good

        I used to contribute to that but now I search for Avios

        • harry says:

          23 Aug23 August 19:19

          Raffles was on it lol

        • harry says:

          23 Aug23 August 19:45

          we both seen the light I guess

  • Alex W says:

    23 Aug23 August 12:38

    What did you do with all the magazines that yo must have sscavenged?

    • Andrew* says:

      23 Aug23 August 16:08

      Through them in the *bin* with all the unused printers purchased purely for points and no regard for the environment 😉

      The mags were picked up in great quantities from the Tesco on Cheapside, taken to my work where I cut out the coupons and put the rest of the mags in recycling. My colleagues think I’m a bit loopy (but they are always asking for money saving tips…)

  GLA – PUJ 25/9-2/10 £1445. With an AI hotel it won’t be much over 2k

• Clive says:

  I’m in the middle of my holiday in Krabi, Thailand and having flown over with Qatar ex Oslo for under £600 I think I will give this a miss.

  • Nick says:

    23 Aug23 August 23:14

    Which cabin Clive? If business that is an awesome deal and beats my £852.90 Qatar business class return from AMS to BKK this November.

    • Poly says:

      24 Aug24 August 07:38

      Ours is similar to HKT end of Oct, from CPH. Great value. We did cancel a BA F 241 to buy this, but putting the avios to v g use for RFS to position, and back and forth to DUB. Hope for a similar one not November too on QR. BTW it’s a1-2-1 config, same as BA F.

    • Clive says:

      24 Aug24 August 08:36

      Hi Nick, Yes it was in business. Got the 787 out of OSL and the 380 on the BKK leg.

• james says:

  23 Aug23 August 10:32

  I will be interested to see what they have to LAX. Typically ex OSL,ARN,CPH I can get roundtrip for 370GBP or DUB in Club for 1200GBP
