2019 POUG rate tracker

Please add your own successful results to the follow list including the month/year when the POUG was offered to you. Please delete any figures from 2018 or earlier if you have a 2019 price. Previous data lives on via post 2.

UPDATED TO: Post #9

POUGs are offered via BA.com and the App Manage My Booking via a distinctive banner (example from MMB below). You cannot get a POUG by telephoning, however the service centres can complete a POUG which falls over mid transaction. They are offered on cash and Avios redemptions but typically not on complex routings, BA Holidays or travel agency bookings until OLCI stage. POUGs on Avios redemptions won't get you additional TPs/Avios, but they will on revenue tickets.



Short haul routes from LON to/from Europe
A price in pounds indicates a ticket issued from London, other currencies indicate prices for tickets issued overseas (e.g. singles or returns originating from CDG priced in Euros). Multiple prices indicate a range of fares are on offer. Note that LCY prices currently seem to be on a different basis to LGW and LHR (cheaper, in other words).

LGW - ALC £89. It was a cheap and cheerful ticket. I’ve never really researched this before, so no idea if this is a good deal for a 2 and a half hour flight.

LAX - LHR WT(HBO) to WT+ £269
I'm pretty sure if I was to take it, I wouldn't be able to UUA to CW (there is reward availability), right?

Yes that is correct, it is in the T&Cs of the POUG and also it booked into a booking class that you cannot UuA from (I believe that it is booking class U, but I am happy to be corrected).

That's pretty standard. Almeria is also £89 too - similar route, same departure point (LGW). The irony is that when you add the POUGs both ways to the price we paid, it adds up to HIGHER than the I class original Club ticket.

That's not a coincidence. The core effect of POUGs is to offer fares similar to, or a little higher than, CE with a Saturday night rule involved. If you're not staying Saturday night, or on single tickets, then POUGs are likely to be more cost effective. It's made more complicated of late, in that LGW has a number of destinations where instead of - or alongside - the Saturday night rule, there is something like a 3 night minima.

We are staying a Saturday night, and having checked again it's just pushing it up to the R class of Club. About £10 more or so than the original I class, each way, pp.

LCY to VCE £59 ET (Avios booking) to CE June 2019. Took this one up. TPs still showing as zero in MMB, although I seem to recall upgrading an Avios flight with cash generating TP and Avios. Might be getting confused with an AUP that def did this last year.

LCY to FCO ET to CE £89, August 2019. POUG offer both ways. Refused.

unfortunately if the underlying fare doesn’t earn - so a reward booking in your case - any upgrade by cash wouldn’t earn.

BLQ to LHR, ET to CE for £89, June 2019. Offer only on the inbound. Not worth it for me.
