Sample date: November 15th - 17th (2 hour turn -- is that even possible?)

Best I'm getting is $944 out of BOS, and that's with 2:20 on the ground in DEL. Is there anything to do at that airport betwen 1:20-3:40am??? I mean, besides stretch out my DVT after two long flights?

so are you just quoting the deal posted or did you actually price one of these out?

I think that should be a requirement before creating a new thread in MR forum.

I looked seriously at this one. Even assuming that it's both real and live, that's an awful lot of flying in the Y cabin in a very short time. I'd probably rather wait for a good BOS/LAX fare then do a bunch of them on consecutive days, sleeping in my own bed every night in BOS (well, Cambridge, actually).

So for that turnaround do you need a visa for India?

It's times like these when I can utilize my life-long visa to India

I would imagine that BA would not let you board LHRDEL as you are flying back to LHR so that is not a transit.
(I certainly had this encounter at ZRH though I did have an Indian visa at that point.)
Anyhow it's not really that long in Y if you can upgrade AA segments using SWU (though this being a fuel dump...)

Need India Visa for immediate turn around -

If I am not wrong, in India, you cannot reboard the same flight without clearing immigration.

Thanks
PD

There aren't any AA segments though, so no SWU's possible.

According to Flight Deal this fare was dead by late morning on June 3.
Not much to to do in DEL airport. For that wait for a good deal to HKG or SIN.
If you don't have Indian visa, please check if BA will let you board at LHR.
