If this works via the web, then fair enough. Though people should be aware such MFUs have been reversed for people in the past - you have been warned! If this relies on booking the base fare then trying to MFU over the phone, personally I think that's a no-no: it can (AFAIK) get agents in to trouble (and again, they've been reversed in the past too).

The last travel shop sale was great (someone clearly forgot the no-MFU T&C, several of us benefited from it with a clear conscience ), but am I the only one to find this one totally uninspiring? Maybe it's because I don't need the TPs now. Or maybe it's just the relentless changes/cutbacks/screw-ups over the past few months making even me tire of BA's attitude a tad. Or maybe both. Either way, for the first time, I'm not leaping at this eagerly looking for private travel

Now, where's the Q1 oneworld miles bonus, that may cheer me up a bit
