London Gatwick to Barbados, St. Lucia, Post of Spain & Grenada.
I wonder how many people take it up.
I was looking at JFK.
I wouldn't say it was a great offer because the corporate discounts don't seem to apply.
However, that still leaves anyone who cannot take advantage of the discount fares because—
- they are not staying a Saturday night;
- they are not visiting within the sale fare period;
- they do not meet the advance purchase requirement on the discount fare;
- they want some flexibility; or
- the booking code in I class is full (and there is no F sale on that route).
