British Airways has launched some attractive Club World fares to the US and Canada for Autumn and Winter travel. These are not being advertised by BA as far as I can see, but they are out there and they are bookable via ba.com.
Here are the headline fares:
New York £1,319
Florida (primarily Miami) from £1,335
Boston £1,345
Toronto £1,411
San Francisco £1,419
Las Vegas £1,449
Los Angeles £1,449
Vancouver £1,459
The fares are valid for departures on selected dates between 28th October and 14th February 2019. A Saturday night stay is required (it may even be 7 days depending on route). The offer is bookable until 28th February.
American Airlines flights are bookable as well as British Airways ones. You should check which plane type is being used but in many cases you will get a superior seat to Club World. You receive the same Avios and tier points irrespective of which airline you choose. Remember that inbound AA flights do not qualify for EU261 compensation if delayed.
“Part Pay With Avios” is also available. Details of how that works are on ba.com here.
Do not book until you have also checked out BA Holidays pricing, booked as a ‘flight and hotel’ or ‘flight and car’. This often works out even cheaper or can get you a hotel for a nominal extra sum per night. The BA Holidays Club World page is here.
