Plus year prior you had the 2 for £2012 around the Olympics. Not same period... but the precedent is for sure there to boost loads in periods of low load factors.

I think load factors to the US over xmas have probably been boosted.

I took advantage of it last year to LAX and will do so again this year if there is a sale. If there is not a sale, then I will not bother holidaying this year but I am pretty confident that it will be repeated this year.

Not to mention the 11/11/11 sale

Docklandsguy, apologies on behalf of ENTP and Wozza2404, I think they are trying to be 'amusing' if you tag together the above chain.

I.e. "shock and outrage, it's Thursday and there's no sub £400 sale".

I am not aware of any sub £600 F fares TATL (neither mistake nor planned).

Just heard from a BA source that the next sale will start in 10-14 days times. Likely to be CW/F.

pretty sure we've usually had an end of summer / August / Bank Holiday sale so broadly in line with expectations I would say.

What are people's views on this covering travel next March/April to the Far East (in CW)? I doubt it, on the basis that's when I want to travel and I've never known sales to hit at the times I want (!), but I'll shortly be booking with another carrier.

I know I'm asking a question that can't truly be answered so conjecture is fine

but let's also not forget about newer members less au fait with various senses of humour (and the likelihood (or not) of there being such £600 F fares).

Happy Rainy Thursday.

Thanks chris1979, the issue was more likely I am not a morning person and it was still too early for me to get it..

I also heard Jeremy Corbin will be the new leader of the Labour Party
