RJ: LHR - BKK £996 in J, 787 all legs
Book between 8th October and 31st October
Travel between 15th October and 20th March 2016
No outbound travel between 15th December and 27th December
No inbound travel between 2nd January and 10th January
No stopovers are allowed
Cancellation is allowed for a US$300 fee
Works out nicely as a BA tier point run at 140 + 140 + 140 + 140 = 560. Getting all flights on the new RJ 787 aircraft with decent looking J seats is a bonus.
Books into I class which is a stated BA class for tier point earning.

Nice one Raffles.

RJ IRJSPEM, I assume.

Thanks OP.
Due to a family emergency, this works for me to fly back for 3 days at a very reasonable price. Unfortunately I couldn't get the B787 for the LHR-AMM legs but am booked on the A321 instead. How are the seats? I had a look for trip reports and reviews etc. Not much other than 46" legroom. Is it comparable to TK's 2X2 single aisle seats in C or comfort class? I know it will be better than UA/AA domestic F recliner seats but that's about it. Is it comparable to CX/TG regional C?
(The B787 C I think I know what to expect- basically UA's businessfirst)
Anything else I should know? Or if anyone has anything they can share that would be great. Cheers.

It's in French, but the photos are all that you'll likely need

Came back to say I enjoyed the food: definitely up to TK standard. Though i guess that's a plus not confined to RJ's narrow-body fleet

I've travelled between London and Amman a couple of times on the A321. It's fine. The only other A32X dedicated business-classes i know are TK, MS and MH, and RJ doesn't disappoint: except it all feels a bit crowded after the wide-bodies. And the trollies seem to block the aisle for significant amounts of time (service isn't hurried...).

That's good to hear, to be honest I was a bit sad initially to see the A321 given that it's a 5 hr flight like EWR-LAX. But to know that food wise it's TK standard & the seat looks good enough. Moet is a big plus too

Intriguing that they also use a narrow-body.

Who flies an RJ from LHR-BKK?!?!?!
LOL - A bit of humour here.
From the original post, i thought that this was a thread about a Regional Jet (RJ) flying from LHR to BKK. There would need to be a lot of refueling stops in some interesting places, even in a CRJ900...

Thanks for posting this deal. I was able to pair this with the US-UK Oneworld business class deal and it will make for a nice trip. I have been wanting to try RJ for a while and cant beat the price. Unfortunately on November 22nd they are using a A321 from LHR-AMM but I will survive. 
Now the big question is what to do on my 6 hour layover on the return...I think I am too cheap to pay for the visa to allow me to go into town so may get to know the lounge really well on this trip.

Relax ! With the faff involved, the six hours would shrink to an hour or so in town: and no town's going to be at its best early morning. Even Amman
So resign yourself to a doze in the lounge.

RJ: LHR - BKK £996 in J, 787 all legs
Are the showers complimentary for J pax? some websites are telling me it's not, which I find strange for the national carrier at home to charge their premium pax for a shower.
