Most routes for Summer 2017 are already on sale.
Last year, A3 didn't announce the summer seasonal service to Dublin until the end of October. As such, you may have to wait some time yet to see if they will fly the route again next summer (no guarantee that they will).

In case you haven't heard - the cheapest economy classes (U, T, P) can no longer be upgraded with the Gold/Silver seat upgrade coupons. You have to buy a more expensive fare, which involves calling A3 or contacting a travel agent to specifically avoid the cheapest available fare buckets.

New destinations are:
ATH-EDI (2/w), KWI (2/w), HAJ (2/w), SXB (1/w).
Also, ATH-STR (3/w) will be direct (and the service via SKG will start from SKG - similar happens with DUS).
At the same time, ATH-OSL, RIX, PMI, LJU will not return.

That also means that this is THE time to book your summer travel if you intend to upgrade using coupons. No need to mess around with OTA's, calling the CS, or other tricks to have your tickets issued in S class - most spring/summer tickets are issued in S right now!

Most of the flights I'm currently seeing are in L class, which is not the cheapest bucket.

For the London flight few day ago is about £120 for return in June, July, and today I check again is already £300. Don't know when they put the lowest fare again.

Is there another way to see base fares for different booking classes than calling customer service? Just trying to figure if the difference from discount class to S is in the range of 20€ or are we talking about 100s.
