Ad in today's papers. Am posting via blackberry so don't know how good it is. Up to half off, book by 13 nov, travel dates vary, start mid dec finish as early as jan 4.

It appears to be a Luxury Seat Sale. Up to 50% off.

But it is telling me it has ended... that said, a quick search for flights in J/F to various destinations seems to be lower than usual.

Just tried a dummy booking to Dubai from the screen telling me that the sale had ended. In F the round trip fare in F falls from £3300 rtn to £2300 rtn for departures between Dec 14th and Jan 4th.

So it looks as though there is both a sale and another BA IT triumph....

All being discussed in the 'next sale' thread

Indeed....it makes you wonder how they can afford to provide such a great product at those crazy prices.

Well some folk.

Try to book a £65 o/w fare. You can't. It leaps to £277.34!

The offer is supposed to be £65 each way on a round trip, i.e. £129-ish, but even then it doesn't work. It becomes £259.78!

There's more discussion on this nonsense in the thread mentioned by Globaliser.

No I've not gone mad. If I click on the BOOK NOW button before logging in to my BA account i can look at the fares in the new Club and First sale. Yet, if I log in to my account it says this -
