Cheap fare to LHR on Destina
$886.71 CAD including taxes for Mon-Thu travel (a bit higher for wkend travel).
Travel before 06SEP. Sat night stay required and 3 months max stay.
This is very cheap for summer travel considering that $1250 was the lowest fare when I was pricing it out for a few people.
Booked in L.

Yes - but there are so many flights per day during the summer (5 - 6) and the oversell limit on those is very high. With J so empty on some of those flights, the Y capacity can be increased by decreasing J capacity. Even if they have to bump people, they get $800 cash in exchange for $500 MCO. There are always people willing to do that.
