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).

Shows price, starts churning when I select the upgrade, and then returns the error message. A similar thing happens when I try to process it via the mobile app. I just spent 30 mins on the phone with BA who were unable to sort (even they can see the offer and duplicate the error). Frustrating!

I wonder if this has happened to others?

Has anyone ever seen a POUG for LHR - AMM. There is no WTP on the flights to Amman, so wondering if POUGs ever come when the next available cabin is CW?

Can a POUG get offered if one refrains from checking in online to allow the 48 hour post booking time scale to allow a POUG appear. Or is there no possibility at all once online checkin is open?

I booked a last minute flight for travel tomorrow lunchtime and it won’t be 48 hours until late tonight.

Thanks

LHR-BSL £129 for a flight in 10 days time

I didn't book CE outbound at the time of ticket booking as it was very expensive, seems as though ET is getting popular on my flight.

A question - How does BA justify omitting the POUG option on it’s long haul flights from feeder UK domestic connections?

Because they have enough take up without doing so?

sure doesn’t make it right?

So WTP booking , for example creates no change in the connecting domestic to long haul class sector to WTP cabin, yet the poug CW is not offered on such .

Yet if if you book LHR to Xxx you get offered WTP to CW !

Is this a London citric algorithm.

Not demand driven to me - seems unfair and anti competitive

Well, many things in business, and perhaps the airline business especially, can be seen as not fair. Why should someone going from XXX to LHR and back see far fewer lower price deals and see higher prices in general than someone goring from LHR to XXX and back? And that's just one example. There are many more. I don't see this one as being that different.

I'm not sure why you think it is anti competitive though.

£299 - WT - WTP LHR - JFK on Sunday. Don't think I'll be taking this as it seems high compared to others. Appears to have coincided with 2 WTP reward seats opening up.

LHR - SEZ £809 from Y to F (and £81 for an infant!)

Sorry I'm in a rush so I don't want to risk making a mess in the Wiki...
