This 2015/16 thread is now closed. The 2017 thread is:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/british-airways-executive-club/1818553-premium-fare-deals-j-f-2017-edition.html

A collaborative collection and discussion of nice Avios-earning and TP-earning J & F premium fare deals. This thread is not for TP runs or published sales.
Some links to relevant threads can be found below.

Enjoy your Premium Experience.

FIRST CLASS - RTM/AMS/BRU to West Coast (SFO, SAN, YVR, SEA) starting at £2330... (just click on the book with American link to get the good price. )
Oneworld: Italy and various EU to New York in club €1250
CONSOLIDATED QR 2017 Travel Festival Fares
Current QR Sale Fares (yes, I did...)
QR/UL FRA-MLE via DOH+CMB: 1380€ RT across the board. 640 TP.
Switzerland/Italy/Sweden to East & West Coast USA in WTP (PE) €600/690 (3x Avios)
LHR-Asia/Oz for £1100/1500 on MH
Finnair J, ARN / GOT - BKK, 1150 GBP return (valid till Jan 9th)
TXL and Portugal to JNB for £1350/1450 on BA discussed from post 5021 onwards..

For promos to the US (often, but TP heavy routes in general) it is always a good idea to look at BA Tier Point Runs 2017 master thread. Current sales are often in the Wiki there.

In the end I didn't take it would have been another way to get to SAN and I already booked the SAN trips I needed the week before as vikings. So spoilt for choice we were in the summer of 2015...

The sequence each Thursday over three successive weeks was:

1. Viking - Norway to the US (not including Hawaii) in J for ~£350-400
2. Bratwurst - Germany to KL (~£800) or SYD (~£1300) in F
3. Tequila - PRG to Mexico in F for ~£500

Only 1 was honoured, whilst 2 and 3 were not.

They definitely weren't mistake fares... 3 Thursdays in a row is no mistake but if BA could make them ex-INV next time, I'd be v v v happy.

Pretty much any dates you want. I'm trying to work out if this fare can be amended to make use of TWOV.

Yes, you can fly BKK-KUL-PEK // PEK-HKG-PEK (CX) // PEK-KUL-BKK on two tickets naturally.
I am doing an open jaw as well.

Does anyone know how easy it is to B2B in PEK? Is it possible to transit back onto the next departure?

Google Flights is saying 'angled-flat seats' - is this out of date, then?

Edit: Aha - so it is, as of 28th August.
