I think this one was reported in this thread from Tuesday: BA offering 50.000 seats for £50 each way

So this.
I found a perfect flights and then they shot up by £300 within 2 hours.. i refuse to pay £600 for a flight with bags when i can fly at better times but have to take an hour train.
If they dont announce a sale by the end of next week im going to go on VS

Been watching DEN all week and no shift. Had wondered if the announcement this week of UA extending DEN to year round from Nov might have swayed prices for next Mar

randomly checked united. They had the flights i wanted to newark for £150 less than they were yesterday.
Snapped them up so quickly.
I will be watching the BA sale to see if the flights i orginally wanted ever went down.

Someone here said the new sale was starting last Thursday, what happened to that?
On the BA app on my phone it says May 2020 F Lhr-Mia round trip £1,369 but when you try to find it it’s not there. Round trip over £3k bit of a difference.

Expect something before the end of this week when the school holidays are coming to an end.

I'm not sure they'll be in too much of a rush to get a new sale going whilst they're still trying to sort out the disaster they created.

Agreed, it'd have to be a VERY good sale to get back in my good graces after this whole strike fiasco...I still have two more long haul flights to book this year and I'm currently leaning towards AF/KLM (since when did I start thinking AF had the lower risk of disruption due to strikes??) unless there are some very compelling J/F fares.

Yeah, but there's no guarantee they'll even be able to answer calls by this Thursday...

I’ve got a GUF to burn and have a week’s worth of holiday I’ll have to take in January - fancy a nice WTP fair to MEX that I can upgrade to CW...
