DXB-JNB on CX? Over 12k in E

I assume you meant JNB-JFK

Still about $1,000 more though for only an extra 5k miles RT or so.

WTP = World Traveler Plus (i.e. BA Premium Y)

BA- WTP fare

Hi,

I saw that you could do (any EU cities)-DXB-LHR-LAX-(any Hawaiian cities).
For some of the dates, if the 'T' WTP fare is not available, it books you into 'I' class.
I managed to grab for the outbound (AMS-LHR-DXB) in CW and all the other segments in WTP for 1380 Euros. Will use the next part to combine with the cheap YVR WTP fare error next year.
Not bad fare (considering cheapest of such combination only for EU-LHR-DXB-LHR is close to 1200 Euros).

For info: there is a 3 days minimal stay for the DXB part.


Cheers!

That's not true. If T isn't available you don't get the fare, but it so happens that the I fare is also cheap.

Where else in Europe can you originate from? BA doesn't fly Prem Econ out of Rome.
