Between today and Monday 26th November, British Airways is selling two Club World seats to selected destinations for £2018. That’s just £1009 return per person!
You cannot book for one person at these rates. However, it does seem to work for three and other odd numbers.
The deal is only valid for selected destinations. I was genuinely surprised to see Abu Dhabi as the Middle East is normally very busy over Christmas anyway.
Cities included are:
- Atlanta
- Austin
- Baltimore
- Boston
- Chicago
- Denver
- Fort Lauderdale
- Houston
- Las Vegas
- Miami
- Montreal
- New York
- Orlando
- Philadelphia
- Phoenix
- San Jose
- Tampa
- Toronto
- Washington DC
- Abu Dhabi
- Beijing
- Shanghai
- Seoul

The bad news is that travel dates are restricted.
Outbound flights must be between:
11th – 13th December
16th – 18th December
24th – 31st December
Return flights must be between:
24th December – 31st December
8th January – 10th January
And try BA Holidays …..
These deals are often even cheaper if you add a hotel or car hire via BA Holidays. Go to this Club World page of the BA Holidays site and check the pricing before you book ‘flight only’.
BA Holidays is also running its own Black Friday bonus. For ‘flight + hotel’ or ‘flight + car ‘ holidays booked for travel between 1st December 2018 and 20 October 2019 you will:

Curve Amex Beta not working on Andriod download App on update fails , anyone had success on Samsung on this >?
Worked for me on a Google Pixel – though it wouldn’t update the existing app, I had to delete my existing app and then install.
However, it’s crashing when I try to add the card.
Now fixed with an update!
What do people think of the 0.65% fee for amex on curve after using your 1k allowance on the black card ?
Cheap Avios if you purely look at that, but arguably you should factor in whatever reward you’d get (with no fee) linking to a reward Visa or MC.
cant seem to find these deals to Fort Lauderdale at all. not on BA website nor an any OTA. any help/suggestions please ?
Look like Fort not an option on now as very specific dates and no availability .
far from ideal i know but try Tampa. Looks good still from
there on selected dates.
This even “worked” for my wife and our lap infant: LHR-SHA £1025
Couldn’t get to price up on BA last night but was showing on various lesser known OTAs via Kayak last night so gave it a punt. Was ticketed this morning and managed to choose bassinet seats so no problems so far.
Didn’t realise BA flew to SHA
genghis being facetious
well if you are gonna use the codes use the codes….
Yes, PVG of course.
2 Club seats to Vancouver out 17th Dec, back 10th Jan, £1,847.02 with Carlton Leisure (via Skyscanner)
On a completely different note, how does virgin now treat cash withdrawals with curve ? cash advance or still purchase ?
Purchase so far for me – about a month ago
Just tried it now.. it is showing as MCC 6540
I will find out in a few days
Are the BA fares for UK departure only? Would they work from USA to UK?
Virgin Atlantic seems to be working for indirect flights with Delta to get better availability, very limited for the direct routes. This is great as indirect not working with BA with BA metal being needed to work! Damn you AA!!!
I saw AA on connecting flights this morning. LHR – PHL – MIA. No direct flights to MIA at the sale price
great, more fares for companions…. getting tired of this as a solo traveller….
Swings and roundabouts. It’s far easier to get a redemption for a single seat.
What if you don’t have the avios for a redemption? Not everyone collects them anyway.
This is not swings and roundabouts given the low % of reward seats there are compared to revenue.
Just be fair to solo travellers and give us the low fares too.
Honestly, you’re just having a whinge. I travel solo and other times as a party of 4. Both aren’t great for deals or redemptions. Those are the breaks. Popular markets drive the deals *shrugs*
How can you get this deal with an infant and 2 adults? When I do 2 adults to Abu Dhabi it comes up to £2016.00 but if I do 2 adults and an infant it goes up to £3800!!
Book the 2 adults and then ring CS and ask them to add infant to your PNR. Make sure they waive the service charge for booking over the phone.
Having children is expensive…
OT (or at least tangential)
New to points and planning (way) ahead for a family holiday to S.Africa Autumn 2020, prob Oct half term.
As I may need to book reward flights in 12 months I thus need to start collecting aggressively points and 241 vouchers about now. That’s all in hand but here’s where I’d like some advice:
I’ll need 3 seats. BAPP voucher covers 2 of those. But looking at the cash price of the 3rd seat in CW at T-355, its not cheap. This plus taxes on 2 CW redemptions and the total cost, approaching £4k, seems barely worth using the avios for.
What’s the chances of:
picking up the cash CW ticket at some point after T-355 in a sale such as this one?
Buying 3 flat bed seats from another carrier at these sort of prices (£1k ea) and banking the avios?
We’d consider positioning into Europe – LHR not that convenient anyway – if long haul was direct.
Only really want CW if overnight, but WTP rewards are like hens teeth.
I realise this is a dark art, but any advice welcome, sorry for length of post!
