ba.com currently has CW for GBP1019 return = GBP4.25/TP; a far cheaper way of acquiring TPs - at least on this route.
The only time(s) I've flown F on this route are either during a sale (GBP250 CW to F upgrade last summer) or by MFUing.

Paying the price you quoted for a 4hr f trip would be stupid.
If the op is buying the f trip to cai on miles either and has tonnes of them,then I'd go for it aswell.

BA is planning another duty for the overworked CSD's. ....To provide entertainment when the IFE system breaks down. So when I saw this I just had to order one.
Don't clap and cheer and you'll get a clip round the ear with it.

I do not need this piece of trash to give you the beating that you deserve.
Talking of this - Phil Darling. Am I so hard on you? Do frame the piece as such moments come rarely. Why with all the men on Flyertalk am I running around after the last inhabitants of Jurassic Park!

Never ready?! I've stood at CAI at midnight every day this year, ready to present you with a bunch of roses and a bottle of duty-free Bombay Sapphire, waiting for you to appear from BA155.
I've had in my hand the description of yourself you sent me (25 years old, blonde, 40DD, 5'10", slim) so that I could give you a surprise welcome to CAI. Not once have I seen a BA CSD matching your description.
I couldn't have been any more ready if I tried.

Whilst I too, enjoy the F service to CAI, sadly, it is at least a couple of years since the PJ Belle Epoque was served on F.

I echo all of the (serious) things that Phil says above.
One thing to note that I haven't seen discussed here is that now BA's operating from T1 during renovations at T2, the flight parks on a (very) remote stand. The first bus seems to take only fifteen people (or maybe twenty five), and then the next buses are crammed full. So if you don't make that first bus you'll be stuck in the queue to buy the visa, and then clear immigration. You have been warned - it's a definite drawback of sitting upstairs...
