I got OSL-AKL-OSL for £1420 earlier this year, and I know others have had better when GBP was stronger - but that's still a great price IMHO, enjoy!

PSA to AKL £1100 last May, doubt will ever be seen again. Pound wasn't that strong at the time.

Sounds unlikely to come back, given BA does not serve that route directly anymore...

The fare initially went after BA pulled the route at the start of this year. However, it did come back and ran for several months until 10 July when BA were not flying the CTU route anymore. You might be right that it won't come back, but it seems cancellation of the CTU route didn't stop it running until very recently.

Even better - for me in Scotland, or for the ex-EUs amongst us - is AMS - PTY and return PTY-MIA-LHR-EDI for £1225

All on BA and the chance of a UUA on the TATL return from MIA?

I didn't realise that it had gone originally, so perhaps there is a chance afterall. Fingers crossed

Spoke to BA on the phone today and such fare is booked into C, hence the price hike!

Should be available from Inverness for £1,350 which may save some positioning costs

This mornings price for same dates is £1292 which may just be currency fluctuations for INV-PTY and PTY-EDI

Pretty cool. Found a good one for December/January:
AMS/MAD/MIA - some days in MIA (IB A330, is J in this one ok?)
MIA/SJO - some days in Costa Rica
SJO/MIA/LHR// (BA A380) //LGW/AMS - Same day. You know why

1230 GBP. Not bad for a winter holiday and nice Avios as Golds.

Bookable only via Phone? Does it matter if BA or Iberia? (Google flights says BA is more expensive due to higher fees)
