Anyone else finding the BA site particularly troublesome this morning? It keeps booting me off.

Hmm, not sure I like everything I see.
It's only an I4 sale and prices are not as low as previously. In fact, ex-UK fares are still higher, sometimes significantly than ex-EU fares.
Also:
Sad face. No baby bus, although it is allowed on ex-EU sale fares.
And, only subjective evidence on this one, I class availability for the sales period seems to be much reduced from last week. I can't imagine that that much I inventory has been booked already.

I think the ex-EU fares may well win out on this one. 140TPs total for a direct flight which I may or may not be able to UUA, or 600+ TPs and the chance to do a couple of nights in LAS for £600 more...

Definitely there
LHR-PEK/BKK-LHR for 3 May returning 25 May has dropped by c. £260 to £999
I assume we will now get the ad campaign kicking off?

Ex-UK, of course ... golfmad will have to wait until the next ex-US one.
