British Airways Chase "Above & Beyond Summertime in London" event
Is anyone else going to this? I booked 2 seats this afternoon. You have to have a valid Chase card. Seems like a reasonable deal for people with a shed load of Avios and a Chase card.
Dear Golfmad,
As an extra special thank you for being one of our most loyal British Airways Visa Signature® cardmembers, we would like to offer you and a guest the chance to attend our Above & Beyond Summertime in London event, to experience the very best of the season in London.
Our unique flight will depart from JFK Airport in New York, on Wednesday evening, June 29, 2016 for a truly memorable weekend in the capital and return on Sunday, July 3, 2016. You'll be travelling in the upmost comfort, on our Club World 32 seater aircraft and flying into the centrally located London City Airport.
Once in London, you'll enjoy three nights at one of world's most luxurious hotels, The Savoy, along with a weekend filled with exclusive events.
Thursday:
Upon your arrival in London, you will be transported to The Savoy hotel, for a private check-in service and a delicious complimentary welcome lunch.
In the evening, you'll enjoy the views of Trafalgar Square, at a stunning rooftop event in the heart of the city.
Friday:
Indulge in the tradition of Afternoon Tea, at The Savoy, in one of their beautiful private dining rooms.
Join us for private access to the iconic Abbey Road Studios. Enjoy an exquisite dining reception and a music performance from one of Britain's most popular performers.
Saturday:
You'll be spending the day at Wimbledon, whilst enjoying an exclusive garden party in the grounds of a private home, hosted by tennis great Stan Smith.
Just steps from the famous tennis courts, hear the personal stories and insights on the game from the man himself, before heading over to centre court for the day's matches.
Sunday:
Take in the sights of London one last time from the famed Tower Bridge. Enjoy a catered brunch and personal tour before your return flight to New York.
Tickets to this exciting experience are offered as a package for two at 700,000 Avios for a pair, or 350,000 Avios plus a Travel Together Ticket.
To reserve your ticket, call our dedicated toll free telephone line at 1-800-547-8830 from 12:00pm Eastern Time — 8:00pm Eastern Time on Monday, April 18, 2016.

This Above & Beyond experience is expected to sell out quickly, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

I would snap this up!
I guess people who've accumulated 700,000 Avios on a chase card do deserve this kind of pampering though ;-)

According to Expert Flyer the two flights in question (BA4 6/29 and BA3 7/3) are both J0 C0 using a USA POS and J0 C0 DC RC IC using a UK POS so it looks like it's all sold out.
Should be a fun event, I've never been to Wimbledon.
With a zero cash contribution it's a welcome way to spend some Avios.
