Clearly BA have yet to load a lot of transatlantic fares, eg JFK should come in around £780 rtn in W, currently showing in excess of £1000.

It seems Expedia (UK) are getting in on the sale action as well. An email popped into my account this morning offering 50% discount on all flights. The reality rarely lives up to the billing and Expedia's price is nowhere near 50% off BA's price, but my April itinerary to PHX is nonetheless being offered by Expedia for £881 less than BA's current "sale" price. I'm tempted but wonder whether I'll be able to choose seats via MMB (an important factor for a >10 hour trip in WT). A forum search reveals some success in this but also some difficulties. Any words of wisdom from folk who have used Expedia would be much appreciated.

The only difference to a ba.com reservation is because BA don't own the PNR they cannot make changes to your flights until it falls under aircraft control.

Thank you BA
Last week I was all ready to hit the "buy button" on two tickets in F to NBO for next August. For a couple of reasons I didn't get around to it, today I got the tickets for £1650 less! ^
