I'm crossing my fingers everyday - but no sale so far! Perhaps there just isn't going to be one...

Looks like there are sale fares being loaded. First class to Boston has dropped about £1000 since yesterday. The lowest fare calendar doesn't look updated yet, though.

Not an expert on these things but the fare rules on ITA Matrix seem to suggest another Business/First sale...

Looks like the sale fares are being loaded... continental club is reporting club world and first sale fares are being loaded and looking at the route I'm interested in that is correct. Dropped about £300 r/t in CW.

Fingers crossed wt and wt+ is included in the sale!

Have a look at the Christmas period from about 18th December, that's where I'm seeing the reductions (NYC).

Perhaps others with a better recall can chip in here - is it a little early for a sale that includes Christmas or is that period usually included in the Spring sale?

I've been tracking WT and WT+ flights to Florida for November and both have dropped over night.

Fare class has also changed - looks like some sale fares are being loaded.

Some European destinations are on sale in CE. You can find them using the Lowest Fare tool where they are highlighted.

Just booked CDG for our anniversary weekend
