CW Sale [Ex-JPN]

For you reading pleasure, BA offering CW restricted from Tokyo to London from Y220,000; booking 25-Nov to 9-Dec, and travel outbound before 31-Mar-10 (Thats about £1500 at the moment).

I believe the cheapest fare is usually set to around 290k for restricted I class and the next up is 390k, so this is not bad value! (if you're in Japan like me).

Welcome to FT simonjp !!

That's a terrific fare for NRT - particularly as capacity on the route has been cut to one flight a day. With the strength of the Yen (£1 = ~140 Yen) a trip to the UK must be quite an attractive proposition (I wish it would go back to 220 to the £1 though )

I have now linked to this thread from post #3 of the Current fare sales thread. Japan currently the only place on sale at the moment!

The rate is more $1 = ~87 Yen. That's why it's strong. A $1 = ~140 Yen rate would mean a weak yen
