Looks like the Thanksgiving deals are out. For example, I have seen BOS-LHR rt in biz on VS and DL for $1754 ai.
I am tempted to take a trip to IST in biz for $2626 ai, but I am not sure if we will see even better deals after summer. I mean, it's kinda early to think about Thanksgiving...

Have you been able to book it?

There is an equivalent business fare for ~$1659 AI that books into P class. When going to the Swiss website to book this, the price doesn't change.
The Swiss fares are valid for outbound travel 28-23 Nov and return 23-28 Nov.
Update:
When playing around a bit, these fares are also available to other European destinations, such as CDG, FRA and LHR. I tried all ex NYC.
At least AF, Delta, KLM, UA, Virgin and LH have matched the C fare around the $1600-1700 mark. Not sure how good of a deal this is, since I don't know the usual C price this time of year, but it sounds good to me.

It looks like that this business sale will go on for some time, at least for *A. On united.com, the fare rules say that one has to book before SEP 24. I checked SFO - FRA and SFO - LHR. Both around 2300 in P.
