All flights are on the 190s I believe.
There are actually only two different Club Europe prices one way on the route throughout the four month season. These are £186 and £244 one way, giving a cheapest CE fare of £372 and a most expensive CE fare of £488. Economy prices vary more sharply between a minimum fare of £69 one way and a maximum of £185 one way or a return fare of between £138 and £370. Paying as much for an Economy ticket as it costs for Club on only slightly different dates would not appear to be a very good choice.
There are seats available on this route on Air Miles for 1500 miles return but they are limited to days when the cash fare in Economy is either £69 or £79 and the miserly Air Miles fare engine only seems to allow the £79 fare to occur in one of the two directions. However on that basis paying 750 miles + £50 seems a better bet than paying 1500 miles and no cash supplement.
There seems to be slightly better availability on the route using BA Miles but the taxes payable make it a less attractive option financially, especially in Economy (where the airport and passenger departure taxes payable on BA Miles come to a very large amount compared to the cash fare).
