I did, at the time, take advantage of the WT+ positioning flights in the BA sale, so I now feel like I'm playing a game of chicken. If I don't book something before Sept we'll have 9 days in AUH! Fingers crossed for better next time.
There is of course no guarantee for another sale with a discount of the same magnitude as what has been coming, being extended, going and coming back again.
As I already have 2 trips in both April and October, I have concluded that this sale is not for me. For you being two, and already made reservations for positioning, I certainly don't envy yo right now. But, and a very large but, there's more than half a year until September.
As I said in the post you qoute above, I'll be waiting for a 'real' sale (-40%) within weeks/couple of months.
If I'm wrong, you might need to be looking for a sale of sunscreen with high SPF to endure 9 days in DXB
