Wow, good find.

However, note that, in the off-chance it's honoured, it appears to be booked in I class, so non-earning.

Oh well...

Hmm - I class, £249 including tax... Looks like the cash part of a miles + cash redemption somehow made it into the booking engine?

This will be my 30th birthday present to myself!

I am a newbie on the BMI forum, so hi there!

Never flown BMI internationally, would like some info on what aircraft will be used for this service and whether you reckon they will honour this crazy price for a business ticket??? Do I still get lounge access - what arrangements have BMI made for lounges at LAS?

I am a United Silver - what benefits will this give me with BMI?

Swine !. It came up at 249.00 each for out 10th back 13th, allowed me to go all the way then 'page cannot be displayed' when clicking to confirm purchase. Oh well .

The downside of the newly acquired Lurkers maybe ??

I had better book my Celine tickets, and my "o" tickets, oh and the new Star Trek Experience. And Rita Rudner. Oh and maybe a trip to Palm Springs.

Choices choices

Her is the fare blurb - any FTers read any possible downside to this ticket:

Probably change the schedules one week prior to travel, without notification, then re-route apudme via Inverness, Bombay and Antigua. Unless, of course, you're travelling on a Wednesday...

Do I detect some jealousy

Actually, I have chums in all those places, so not a problem!
