Pre-booked.

May 1, 2, 5, 6.
Fits perfect with Madrid - Valencia 4th of May. (Match can be changed to 3rd of May but that works to)

391 US dollar.

Need to purchase by: booking ends at 14 Nov 2013, 14:45hours - Miami.

The sad thing is that there were no 01.55 seats available so I have to spend about 11 hours at DXB.
Maybe I can find some nice hotel for that, I dont know or I´ll just hook my PC up and play some games.

Or maybe I´ll throw DXB-LHR-PAR away and go to Japan instead.

For those holding the reservations lets hope that IB honors holds once they figure out the amount of bookings

There are still plenty of dates available just looked at may9-12

You could try to get on the 2am flight back to LHR, see my itinerary in #16 http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/21774039-post16.html

(I'm not sure if this exact itinerary is available anymore, though.)

Yea... this is a PAR-MAD RT fare, and whoever priced it probably wasn't envisioning a double layover in London with a third layover in Dubai in between them... EACH WAY.

But they might honor it!

After some playing around with dates, just booked March 13, 14, 17 and 18 for ORY-LHR-DXB-LHR-MAD-LHR-DXB-LHR-ORY. 15683 x 0.8 = 12546 EQM for 289.57 EUR. Even felt the price allowed upgrades on LHR-MAD r/t for 80 EUR each

Thanks to OP^

Looking at 180 Tier points and 20k+ Avios each for the wife and I. Not bad for Ł220 each!
