AA will fly you in J on the same dates and routes for £400 return more.

CW on the same dates is a mere £5,847 - and that's R class -- the second cheapest class.

That's about £20/tp. It's also the custom BA doesn't seem to want anymore.
That is a curiosity, because unless BA is selling out faster than AA, AA/AY/BA/IB/US fares should be flat across the Atlantic.
