KL: LHR/MAD - NYC via AMS in J - GBP1080
Crazy deal – Business Class from London to New York for a shade over £1k KLM and/or Delta. Freely available on the dates below, bookable direct on KLM.com, and involves one stop in AMS. Seems like some sort of price match with the ex-NL deals with OW that have now died. Cutting into each other’s home turf? 
You can also get this on Delta stock. Some availability to route via CDG, and you can get a a direct flight from NYC to LHR on the inbound leg for an extra £300 (prices at around £1373 currently)
The details:
Happy hunting!

that Skyteam was matching from UK, or LHR at least, was mentioned in one of the (now numerous) parallel threads last Friday.
And Madrid! (Unfortunately not from the other IAG hub, DUB!) There was a sale on MAD-ORD only ending about 2 weeks ago. I almost booked one on Alitalia.

Found fares on an OTA - they took my money - and I just got e-tickets.
silver lining is, it was 250 gbp pp cheaper than the KL website and I booked 3.
whew - - what a stress -
Now, the next thing - -
as you can see I booked an overnight on the way out and on the way back, as I live in AMS. We'll have ski equipment, and actually, I want to check my ski's in in AMS on the outbound, and short check them to AMS on the inbound. Hoping that with an overnight, KL will allow this.
Anyone with experience with this?
and price 989 GBP pp

Row 29 on that Delta flight is economy...
And have you forgotten this?

I booked.
17 Dec MAD-SLC (overnight in Amsterdam, in my own home)
9 Jan SFO-MAD (stop over in Amsterdam)
for 3 people, 1500 EUR per person. Not the viking deal of earlier this year, but it gets to SLC where I can quickly hit the slopes. That's worth something to me.
