I am unsure who would pay £17000 for an out and out leisure destination but there you go! We often see fares of £7/8000 which either go away or we just book the following week when the fares are more “normal”. I would love to know who pays that kind of money but someone I assume must do?
i don’t think ppl paid 17,000 it’s more miles and vouchers I’d say. I think BA’s revenue management system is more aggressive than other airlines, which I have to say is quite successful for them (I actually like being careful with my cashish so if BA raise their prices 10 mins after I look even with resetting cookies, I just fly another airline even if it means connecting !
