My list was of the destinations of the mini Y sale ex-LON that's started today and apparently ends on 6 June.

Trying to avoid that - I'm actually going to SEA and saw cheaper SFO flights as an opportunity to:
a) Avoid the connecting flights via AC I was planning on getting for £750ish - the appeal of SFO being it's easier to get reasonably priced directs.
b) Use the saving (at the time of deciding there were £550ish returns in October I was hoping might spread to September) to extend the trip and take in NorCal at the same time.
I plan to wait until 2 months till my out date and then just fall back on the AC flights.
Just seems so much this time - I go every year and this will be my most expensive flight ever. Last West Coast run was £470 to LAX and that was a non-sale fare after missing some that were even cheaper!
How things change, eh!

04 Sep LHR-LAX BA1508 (ops AA)
25 Sep SFO-LHR BA286
Or, seeing as you have to bridge a gap with a connection anyway, if you go out on BA metal via ORD, you could get something like this for £587.75:-
04 Sep LHR-ORD BA295
25 Sep SFO-LHR BA286

I've been pricing out Europe to Argentina R/Ts, and BA out with IB back is giving me the best fares (and would seem to be covered by this offer). What I can't get, however, is BA.com to offer any IB flights! It would seem strange that the email explicitly says the EUR50 off is valid for flights booked on IB or AA if it's impossible to buy them on BA.com... and you need to book using BA.com go get the discount.
Anyone know how to do this??

Hello all
Is there a possibility of an ex-UK WTP sale going live at the end of the ongoing premium cabin sale?

However, BA seems a little less predictable these days.

Am I seeing a WT+ sale emerging? East coast US fares seem to be coming down a little, with NYC at £883.

Does the Xmas period get included in sales?
Looking at flying to New York on the 14th Dec and naturally the present sale is up to the 13th Dec.
