$3600 (£2300) for first as well. Very cheap for JFK. As you were saying combine with the two discounts and thats a great deal for first!

Yes. It's an outstanding fare in both CW and F! $400 off then deduct 10% as well.

Reliably informed the mid December sale will last for six weeks and be "quite good"

That's a fair description of pretty much every year's December/January main sale.

Looks like some sale fares being loaded. Example: DXB r/t in J Apr'15 for £978 is VERY good value.

Edit: Doesn't seem to be bookable. Just showing in lowest fare finder.

Must have been an I.T blip. Or we can speculate that a good sale may be coming..

So... The winter sale is here.
Thoughts?
Decent in economy, but nothing to speak of in any other cabin?

I've just updated the blog with all the fares, but yes, it's World Traveller only at the moment.

There are (literally) a few WTP fares that are at or about sale levels (CTU, PVG, HKG) but I wonder if this has been rushed out following VS launching their sale earlier today.

The Ts&Cs do make mention of W/J/F though, which could either be a precursor or poor cut and pasting....!

That's my thinking.

I called up to ask about it for fares towards NRT, but there wasn't any difference. I was recommended to check back in the morning once the dust has settled on their systems

Fingers crossed for some decent fares to come for the premium cabins or some good ex-eu fares.

It does seem quite early to be starting the sale compared to previous years, though I did notice that VS launched theirs today.

Actually, I can see some other fares coming through now. DXB is bookable from £687 return in W for Q1, for example.

I am seeing some low prices in Belgium and Luxembourg at the moment - is there a sale on there? HKG in CW below £1500. 1 week pre book, no refunds, changes €350.
