Fare EUR831 + Tax EUR 209.95 I selected outward on AF, return on CO!
Not planning to book this, just put a random date and destination in to see how what state the booking engine is in these days - been months since I last used it!
Perhaps someone at FB heard BMI does a miles+cash option and thought they'd implement their own interpretation of it

That last line about miles+cash is the funniest thing I've heard all month here on FT. ^^
