Late Holiday Suggestions OT
Just as it so happens, I have managed to get 3 days off work (shift work). I finish at 3pm on Saturday, and back to work 3pm Wednesday starting this week. I will be flying out from London.
I tried looking on BA's website to see if I could just input dates, price, distance etc, but there doesn't seem to be anything on BA's website for that.
I've only seen Ryan Air offer that. (((
Am I correct that BA doesn't have that feature? Can any one suggest me some routes for those days?
Thank you.

There is the Holiday Finder:

Also, though it's a bit hidden - if you go to the Find Our Cheapest Fares, select the Europe tab (if that is where you have in mind), then click the upper section to 3 nights (or whatever) then the prices should adjust and you click down on the August prices. You can also sort by the cheapest price, which is for the whole year, but it will still bias your search helpfully. Bordeaux and Hamburg are going for good prices at the moment. Also Moscow at £291 return strikes me as a bargain, if you can get a visa quick.

If you have a few avios to spare, an RFS should be good value last minute. AA's map search is useful though you can only search by date and will have to delve deeper for times.
Plenty of availability to Milan - that might be my pick, hiring a car and going up to the lakes.
