Thanks for the great advice, and also a thank you to potakas and dj_jay_smith.

What does a z-fare mean in this context? As a BA regular I'm fond of Z-fares but to me they mean F redemptions. What I have noticed is that on the A3 website a business class fare to Mykonos is around £600 (plus taxes I think) at the most favourable time of day (if I pick a good day) - not much more than expedia is asking for economy. Is that a proper business class product (like domestic First in the US, or regional business class in Asia) or economy with empty seats like CE? If the former, I'd consider it very reasonable.
