BA Business & First Class UK Sale Fares Loaded 23rd October 2013
As reported here, Club & First sale fares are now loaded and I've posted the longhaul list on the blog.
Overall fares are very slightly (under 1% crude average across the board) lower than the last sale in May. There are more £200 CE destinations though - this time it's Angers, Bordeaux, Genoa, Frankfurt, Paris, Quimper, Rotterdam, Stavanger, Stuttgart and Zagreb.
Booking deadline is Tuesday 12th November 2013, with various travel periods commencing 6th November 2013 and ending 31st August 2014. Most fares have a 42 day maximum stay duration.

Looks like a small North America sale (maybe a price match with Virgin) has started to certain destinations from Dec through March.
Haven't looked at the specific details (end dates etc.) but:
JFK from £1512 in Club
Boston from £1579
Washington from £1583
Vegas from £1994
LA from £1993
+others
WT and WT+ look decent (but not as low as we've seen in recent sales) as well.

The CW fare on that route does look good, though, at £1583. Back in 2008 I paid £1509, before I really discovered MFU/UuA

Don't forget the current business sale on IB from Paris.
IAD on AA or OpenSkies is currently £875 in J.
Even including the Eurostar it's cheaper than WT+ from LHR if you don't mind the slight hassle.

Interesting - where is this talked about wit? Struggling to find on the Iberia Spain website and a random date on ITA didn't come up with it either

Hat tip to people commenting on cheap Brazil fares in Club over Xmas. Some sale fares from today I havn't seen advertised.
Just had a quick look,nothing too relevant to me, so posting my findings, flesh out if you want but havn't seen these specifically mentioned. Good availability on the São Paulo fare - the fare conditions I mention I havn't checked on the other fares, but imaging them to be the same.
I Class Club, no APEX, no Min stay, max 42 days, travel from 22 Dec - 01 Jan, must return by midnight 12 Jan 14.
All these destinations a pint or two over £1k inc tax (i.e. £1005, £1006
) - for sure at this stage cheaper than booking WT or WTP:
São Paulo, Rio, Mexico, Calgary, Montreal, Vancouver.
Anyone spot any others?

Toronto if you really want to freeze to death
Sao Paulo has the best availability, best weather and that's a killer price .. so New Year's in Brazil it is then .. any suggestions on where to go ?
