Having checked that some Flyertalkers are fairly sane (yes I know, that's a relative term!) at a recent HNL do at Lulu's, I've now booked flights for myself and Mr AB! We are on BA1438 at 9.25 from LHR on Friday 6th, returning to LHR on Sunday 8th at 1.45 on BA1445. Would be grateful if someone could do the honours on the wiki - don't quite have enough posts yet!

I think i may have found a dub-sjd-lhr fare that will get me to heathrow at 1:30pm on saturday on the late 777 and 747 from either dallas or phoenix respectively and the fare stops in lhr. 2,600 quid so ouch, but hey, every other fare im seeing for a full ex-eu is 3,500! Not...doing....economy.... I'll confirm once booked.

Also added my flight details
Saturday 7th May STN - EDI FR8883 12:30-13:50
Sunday 8th May EDI - STN FR2684 14:35-16:00
Hangs head in shame but less than half of BA's cost and that's FR Business Plus.
