here is a pretty good deal for our European members.
Lindt & Sprüngli(Capital) to our financial capital
financial capital to FC Chelsea
All for $327 a/i. Pretty good I'd say : )
Same also available departure from Manneken Pis. : )
Update 2: If you are creative you can bring that down to $313 a/i : )

Uh Oh
Just got an email from the big O asking for a call "for a significant change to my flight schedule". I looked at the current flight times for the primary airline and the FD airline and there has been no changes to the original flight times. Anyone else had this happen before?

Actually, if you look even further back, I posted it -- but people only seem to take notice when Raffles posts deals.
It's about 10 pages back and Raffles found it for $322. Sorry all. Still available if you wanted to know

Fellow FD exponents... I have the following TATL sectors booked.
EWR-MAD 3/2, FCO-EWR 3/6, EWR-TXL 3/10 and MAD-EWR 3/14.
Would be fun to meet others engaged in similar activities. Some of you guys must be onboard b/c loads on some of these sectors are uncharacteristically high for low season TATL flights! If so, and you want to chat/meet at PC/onboard, send me PM.

This has been around longer than that; people started posting these around the first or second week of December. They are great fares.

Just as an FYI, this rose oil deal is up on Slick Deals now so looks like the word it out pretty wide.

But the trip is all thanks to FT! Would love to meet FTers on the trip; I don't have anything planned for my time in Europe, really, and, of course, I'm willing to travel!

you could potentially credit the VS flight to CO mileage and get EQMs for it (not sure the exact fare class though)
great fare but trying to save a little for a big trip to the land down under.
