From LHR? I suppose so, but it's possible to get this down to £550 to £700 sometimes, with an ex-EU from GOT, OSL or ARN.

or even just start at INV to get rid of ~£150 of APD assuming the same fare is also available from there.

Saw mention of this on another forum this morning; had been watching prices for CW to Tampa next May for months but too far above what we'd want to pay.
Jumped on the BA site at 8am; no sale banners on the site at that time but our flight & car package had plummeted by £2500!
Booked!

Now on, according to the email from BA to the Blue member of my HHA. Nothing to the silver members....

Just pulled the trigger on INV-SFO with a car on BA Holidays in J for just over £1300 each at the end of March. Happy with that - we were looking for that trip anyway, and I’m happy with the price!

Is there any pattern for a sale to open up for ex-USA? I’ve been looking for tickets to SIN for late winter/early spring and hoping the price comes down a bit.

Slighly annoyed with this sale for purely selfish reasons, pulled the trigger last Thursday on a BA Holidays booking to Hong Kong for my 40th Birthday, and have now seen in the sale its reduced by £300 for the trip and some added enhancements to the hotel such as free room upgrade...

Is it worth ringing BA and being cheeky :-) (Tongue firmly in cheek

Ahh well you love and learn...

Both BA & AA prices from DUB-LAS dropped overnight, each now pricing around €1500. But the AA fares seem to be pretty much only available on AA metal and the same with the BA ones (EI connections also available). Any idea why you can’t combine?

Don't know your price range or exact dates but SAN is only £1600 or so end of May

https://www.google.com/flights/#flt=...01*.GBP.164501

Cheaper if starting in INV.

What were you hoping for ?

Those two locations don't seem to be included in the sale, but Los Angeles is - may be worth LHR - LAX and then add a cheap domestic flight?
