Just for future reference, 1,163 GBP is a lot of money for a premium economy ticket, however good premium economy is on Bmi. For example, a few months ago I and many others on this board were able to book Business class tickets for the same price on the same route on Bmi, and for travel in November 2007.

Maybe Bmi will offer the same promotion this year?

If you can hold out I would maybe wait a bit and see what's on offer.
