BA Avios Off-Peak Calendar
Can anyone direct me to a calendar that shows off peak dates further than 355 days from today?
The one I can find on BA.com today only shows flights until 17/10/16.
I want to book my return portion of a 2-4-1 and need to know when off-peak dates starts again towrds the end of October 2016 (I'm assuimg it will if it follows the same pattern of October 2015)
Thanks

I don't think there is a longer range calendar available. CS might know if you call.
The peak dates in October are based on school half terms. BA have already marked 13-17 Oct as peak which surprises me as I doubt any schools will break 17-21 Oct (make second half of term very long). I know some break 24-28 Oct and some 31 Oct - 4 Nov.
BA may have their plans too early, or may be covering all bases, but I would imagine only Tuesday/Wednesdays will be off peak in late October.
[In May, the peak dates seem to be tied to a half term of 23-27 May, peaking on the two weekends around that, but locally our half term is the following week, i.e. the end of half term is off peak. So BA aren't all that clever about this.]

Has anyone managed to track down the 2017 dates online yet? Frustrating not knowing which dates are under which price point, especially around this time when half term and Easter can start to have an impact.

Any update on the new off peak dates? I see April 2017 is no longer showing up Tuesday's and Wednesday as off peak. Is there anyways to see the later 2017 off peak dates?
