Return to Europe from $360 inc
Found this on another site, and did a search so hopefully this isn't a dupe post.

Unbelievable fares, especially for this time of year. So... what's the catch?
Also, the promo page mentions other European (non-UK) destinations, but I haven't found any that don't significantly raise the fare.

Arse. I booked a WT+ flight ex-IAD just last week for $740 and thought it couldn't possibly get any cheaper.....just found it for $525

I know..I can't believe how cheap it is. I priced my BOS-LHR flight out and I'm paying 1/2 of what the regular ba.com price is. I'm so glad I saw the link on fatwallet.com-I came here to post it but noticed someone else aready posted it.

Great Fare!
Any idea how I could combine this fare with a connection from SAN? via LAX, PHX or SFO?
Could always buy a separate ticket, but would prefer to combine the whole trip on one PNR if at all possible.
Cheers,
bonzo

I had a look through the Exec Club website and although the fare was booked on days where the discount was available it showed me the fare I booked last week when I went through the 'Book and Upgrade' option.

Cant be MFU'd on line, but it does state that they are "T" fares, which in theory are MFU-able. A call to BAEC should get it done.

I was just about to book flights today form IAD and MFU it, glad I "stumble" on the thread over at Mileage Run as I did not see it here.
I also thought the $740 price was never going to get any better, so much so I was worried that price would end yesterday

Thanks for this Tip
Thanks for posting that link. I booked a RT from ATL to LGW yesterday for only $531 RT in WT+. I hadn't flown BA on a paid ticket for a few years due to the disappointment in the awarding of FF miles on discounted tickets. For this price I couldn't say no and besides, I do miss the good service on the transatlantic flights.
