This 2015/16 thread is now closed. The 2017 thread is:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/british-airways-executive-club/1818553-premium-fare-deals-j-f-2017-edition.html
FIRST CLASS - RTM/AMS/BRU to West Coast (SFO, SAN, YVR, SEA) starting at Ł2330... (just click on the book with American link to get the good price.
)
Oneworld: Italy and various EU to New York in club €1250
CONSOLIDATED QR 2017 Travel Festival Fares
Current QR Sale Fares (yes, I did...)
QR/UL FRA-MLE via DOH+CMB: 1380€ RT across the board. 640 TP.
Switzerland/Italy/Sweden to East & West Coast USA in WTP (PE) €600/690 (3x Avios)
LHR-Asia/Oz for Ł1100/1500 on MH
Finnair J, ARN / GOT - BKK, 1150 GBP return (valid till Jan 9th)
TXL and Portugal to JNB for Ł1350/1450 on BA discussed from post 5021 onwards..
For promos to the US (often, but TP heavy routes in general) it is always a good idea to look at BA Tier Point Runs 2017 master thread. Current sales are often in the Wiki there.

BA/OW Premium Fare deals (J and F) exUK/EU
Not necessarily TP runs, but great deals on F or J flights. Since they come up like daily, maybe a good idea to collect them in one thread.
Currently I found a fare from the most confusing airport in Germany to several popular destinations in the colonies (served by a bus) in F for between GBP 2500 and 3000. Around 10% more than J. Play with destinations and dates a bit. I looked at next year mostly.
Post any other fares you may find here.
Have fun.

I think it is a nice idea henkybaby, and especially so for being a little 'cryptic' to slow the pace of bookings and make it a little harder for BA to instantly clamp-down on. Some of the fares you mentioned are bettered out of vikingsville and there are a few nice fares over Xmas if you are willing to go CW one way and F another for a tea party. (not very good at cryptography here

Prices are GBP 2500 to Obama and 3050 to the Westerly Forest. Pardon the typo in the opening thread.

Mmm, so someone (maybe, possibly) from BA Rev Man is clued up enough to keep an eye on this forum, yet unable to puzzle out "tea party" and the like ???
Have fun with the word games fellas, but don't expect anything you do (or avoid doing) to make the slightest bit of difference to BA's actions

Don't we already have the Trick It / Negotiate It thread for people that want to turn saving money on flights into some form of forensics?

And we already have the Mileage Run Forum with the Premium Fare Deals Subforum which has listed these deals for years now. And for relating these fares specifically to the BA Forum we have the Tier Point Run Thread.

Ok, forget it then... We just open a topic every Thursday because these arguments are not applicable to those...

To be fair, I don't think having a thread like this would change that... people ignore the BA Sales Thread and the Tier Point Run thread when the mistake fares show up... not sure why they wouldn't ignore this one too.
