SAS EuroBonus - Is something special going on in LON 25-26 Oct?

All SK flights ARN-LON are fully booked on Friday and Saturday, including full C-class. BA isn't much better, the only tickets they have available for Thursday and Friday is full C-class on 3 flights, the rest is full. Sterling has seats left ARN-LGW on Thursday for 4000 SEK oneway (quite high for being a LCC I'd say) but are fully booked on Friday.

Most Swedish schools go on a one week holiday ("Novemberlov") around this time, that could potentially have something to do with the high cabin load...

Its the ending/starting weekend of "half term" here at the moment, so everyone is traveling with their buckets and and spades here ;)

(this also came up on the UA fourm - seems to be everyone is deciding its fun not to be where they live...)
