Might have to book this for my first "official" mileage run. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

But the taxes and fee amount to almost $100 more..

"Economy fares are subject to availability and do not include government fees and taxes of approximately $94 plus the $2.50 Sept. 11th Security Fee per person when departing the USA. For passengers upgrading to World Traveller Plus, the government fees and taxes are approximately $123 plus the $2.50 Sept. 11th Security Fee. Additional taxes apply for stopovers and other restrictions may apply."

Joking, right? You don't think that $300 from the West Coast to London is an incredible deal? You'd probably pay mor ethen that just to fly to the East Coast.

This is one of the best years yet for Spring flights.

Be careful, I had the same experience when I booked my flight the other night on BA for travel over Thanksgiving. Site locked up, said call the number, reference flight number, placed on hold for at least 40 minutes, when I finally get an agent, she tells me the reservation had actually gone through.

Same thing happened for me, waited for over 40 minutes, and agent told me that the sale went through.
