Are you suggesting that our beloved BA would indulge in marketing slight of hand, sales smoke and mirrors?

+1 for adding a wikipost to this thread...PM sent to MODs to ask.

Well, we always knew that some things would just be marketing deals we already know about...hopefully we still see some new good deals in the next 22 days.

Prospero kindly added the wikipost feature to the thread as you can see ^

As no one had jumped in yet...I have done the first update to include the offer image, T's and C's and a link to the BA website to check it out...

please feel free to change it as you feel appropriate or update it in future...by no means do I wish to dominate the wiki...(the wife will kill me if I spend any more time on here!)

Cheers.

Not 40 though! Perish the thought. That would send a chill down my spine and down my banker's spine!

Of course one could dig through the code and see what images are awaiting us for the rest of the advent calendar.

Most look reasonably self explanatory, some are a little vague and the best looks like it's saved for last!

Thank you, Person of Talent. ^ ^

Some things to look forward to there.

Oooh … 16 Dec looks like an offer on Longueville Manor in Jersey. There's one for a TP run for some of you. Shame it's about 2 miles from home in our case, but VERY highly recommended.

The WT+ sale that usually occurs just before Xmas goes up to the end of March with the odd destination a bit later than that. Probably excludes Easter and any school holiday times. The booking period ran from the 22nd Dec to 24th Jan I believe.

Bound to be some offers that require the, as of late, "book within 3 days for travel during this specific 14 day period when we're not overly busy or snow expected".
