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.

Seems there is availability also in Jan, Feb & June. Didn't check in deep.
These fares have been pulled again - and I had a great ORD itinerary priced up on it - need to just pull the trigger if these come back!

Hoping for a few ex-EU sales post Christmas Day to materialise, because there is nothing worthwhile in the J / F category currently bouncing around.

Premium Economy GOT-LAX £484 CPH-LAX £530

Great deal if you're using avios to upgrade to club, and new WT+ isn't exactly terrible for the day flight anyway.

GOT-LAX in premium economy for £484

Can also be routed via SFO, SAN or SJC in some cases (though note that those legs, as well as GOT-LON are going to be in economy)

With fares like this it's becoming harder and harder to justify bothering with the Amex 241 voucher.

And for anyone considering, it seems GOT is foolproof for back to backs according to the b2b thread:

GOT: Excellent - Borderline foolproof. Arrivals decant into departure hall.
CPH is equally excellent and foolproof.

THIS. I currently have Oakland from Gatters on the recent release next September. £1,000 for two + 2-4-1

Think i'll be changing this.... Can the exGOT be GUF'd with an agent?

When I was looking, SFO SAN and SJC weren't just routing points but valid destinations. Almost jumped on ARN-SFO for £481 yesterday.

Sadly not - it's a dual inventory fare which is only bookable through BA.

If you can find an agent that offers it, no problem.

(I have one in August/September to SEA/PDX).

GOT-LHR-SFO is coming up without the LAX stopover, too.

That's the only thing that really matters, but this thread, and post 6 in particular explains it:

Actually, the other difference it may make is that the surcharges may be different between dual inventory fares (which need availability in economy and WTP) and standard WTP fares (which just need WTP space). As such, the gap to the extra surcharges that apply in CW may be larger.

Thank you, this is interesting. Do we know the fare basis? I'm curious if AmEx Travel would be able to book it.

Can get GOT-SEA for £495 should that be of interest to anyone.

Could combine with the SEA-HAV deal for quite a nice trip...

SEA-HAV is gone and also AA might be tricky with their travel policy to Cuba, as per their travel advisory.
