    Just annoying that 4 Y tickets LHR-MAD cost £350 in IB and £410 in BA (it is an IB operated flight so maybe that’s the reason). Using the BA website would give me 24hrs to cancel and more Avios on my Amex BAPP. But we are talking about a 18% price difference …

    Should the price be fixed in the currency of the operating air carrier?

    It’s most likely to do with BA selling their allocation of the lower prices fare buckets and nothing sinister.
