Is £403 a good deal for WT+ return LHR to BOS in November?
I have just booked a weekend return in November, out on BA213 on 17/11/06 and back on BA238 on 20/11/06.

Is this a good deal?
MMB shows full miles and 150 TP. ^
Would anyone like to join me?

Good...but maybe not as good as NYC for £383*
*£368 if you don't fly on Fri-Sun and pay the weekend supplement

Hi,
£400 approx to East coast USA is ,IMHO an excellent deal for WT+ ( considering the £130+ of taxes/fuel charges).
Not forgetting of course that if you need to be op-uped ( unlikely but you never know) it will be into CW.
( As a BA Gold you can enjoy F check in and the F lounge also ^ )
Boston is a beautiful city.
Enjoy!

If you have a shareholder discount you may still get a better deal for other places. I certainly did for some European flights I wanted.
Edited to say that I just tried your route. WOW, even with s/h discount it would have been 900 pounds more! ^

I've been looking for two WT+ tickets to Denver in September but even though I've tried booking using this link I keep getting around £3,300. Is it worth holding out for longer or is this as good as it gets on that route?
