[OT] Agreed on the whole, apart from the bit in bold: they faced two decent teams (Belgium in the group stage being the other one) and indeed got beaten on both occasions 
Anyway, despair not, there's still plenty to look forward to in the weeks to come, Aberdeen-Burnley in the Europa League should be a good one

We’ll get to see a repeat Saturday though, where I suspect your point will stand!

Boston for St Patrick's Day, £283. Done! Really short flight, easily doable in WT. Wanted to go to Boston for ages.
Many of their destinations are available for the same amount, and I'm happy doing Band 5 down the back even for overnights.

Presumably it had to be ready to be rolled out earlier in the event the match didn't even go to extra time.

And of course welcome to FlyerTalk and the BA forum Phil Dubery, I hope we will see more of you here.
Edit: At a guess these may well be the reasons why this code doesn't work
- you are not a UK BAEC member - you need to have a UK address on your account
- you are not logged into to your BAEC account before hunting for flights
- you don't complete the search while still logged in, you log in times out first
- the code is exactly as written - and you can cut and paste it in
- it goes into the promotion line after the final price is shown, there is a radar dot to press.
- it does not go into the e-voucher box
- the flight needs to be over £300 revenue return flight, and longhaul
- it can't be a BA Holiday, nor can you use it on redemptions/Avios or part pay with Avios
- it is supposed to be for return trips starting from the UK (though some other locations apparently work).
- various types of tickets are excluded, e.g. staff Hotline tickets
If all else fails then you can call up to book but they may charge the extra £5 for the telephone booking. However I suspect many thousands of BAEC members have already been able to book these tickets online, so it should work.

thank you for the quick response c-w-s - I think the issue will be the following two of your points:
- it goes into the promotion line after the final price is shown, there is a radar dot to press.
- it does not go into the e-voucher box
- it goes into the promotion line after the final price is shown, there is a radar dot to press.

As it happens St Patricks day is my birthday and my eldest lad thought it a good idea to spend some time together to celebrate it in Boston and along came your post!
Just managed to snag 2 x MAN - BOS returns for £535 with discount, result!
Buy you a beer

Just to prevent anyone crying foul, I'm just going to head this into the top of the forum, since the clock is ticking, this offer finishes today and I can't see any extra time being allowed. In the past some of these offers have terminated slightly ahead of full time, so I would want anyone to be caught offside on this.
There are some seriously good deals to be had on this, it's a relatively generous offer for UK's BAEC members - who sometimes miss out on offers awarded to those resident elsewhere. For ideas, the lower cost services to Dubai and the rest of the Middle East will give the highest discount percentage, but also look out good fares to BOS, JFK, EWR, ORD, AUS. In some cases you may need to add a domestic connection in to get over £300. And from LGW consider FLL, for the soon to be discontinued service to OAK, perhaps in WTP with a view to UuA.
=====
I can see there have been some problems using this offer, so here is a step-by-step guide.
Login into BAEC on BA.com with your BAEC number and password
Then use this link in the same window (ba.com/fights is a shortcut that may work)
https://www.britishairways.com/en-gb...lidays/flights
Select your revenue flights in the usual way (it needs to be a return flight costing over £300), then when you move to the flight cost confirmation page you should see this - you need to click on the Promotion code button:
Then enter the code on the left side:
After pressing the submit button on the right side, the screen / frame should refresh and show something like this:
Then down to the bottom of the screen, change any details, accept the terms and continue and press continue to go the payment page. As always, it is best to do a print screen before proceeding, so you have a record of the change conditions.
