£450 could be the new RFS fee on long haul bookings, not sure about the extra £4.80?! Have you read Rob’s articles from December – I think BA has got round the “problem” of not being able to charge surcharges by introducing this system.

I thought that may have been the case but all of the amounts were very random, they weren’t like the new long haul RFS. I checked returns flights from Buenos Aires as I would also be close to that airport and they do show the correct new RFS pricing, £300 being the cheapest price plus the most amount of Avios.

I was just strange because they search page was showing the low amount which I assume is correct then the payment page the higher amount.

I’m flying in to Buenos Aires on a 2-4-1 so I will get this flight added to that for a 50% refund so it’s not the end of the world, I just thought I had a bargain on my hand paying under a tenner each to come home
