Fly back on the 19th and you can price it for 50 eur more.
Edit: Or you could fly back 2 days later on the 23rd for the same price. No A380 though.

That’s because it is a poor sale and they have probably not come near the sales they expected :/

Since there are very few good deals out there, extending the sale until the end of January isn't going to shift many more seats. For one thing the blackout period is ridiculously long, and most fares within the blackout period have been priced higher than they were before the 'sale' started. I'm waiting for this sale to end, and am hoping something much better will turn up in the next couple of months. If not I'll be taking one of the other One World options to Bangkok; maybe not quite as sybaritic in business class, but several hundred punds cheaper!

The Travel Boutique Sale has not been extended universally; certainly not in some Asian markets. Remarkably, some itineraries are pricing better now, without discount codes, than they did during the sale with discount codes.

Does anybody have working discount codes? A further 5%-10% discount would help me pull the trigger.

indeed, you are correct! I was looking at the Economy seats out of BKK to Europe over the summer. My thinking was that I would buy a ticket that was not T,O,W class so that I could potentially upgrade. Well, suprprise surprise, I found that during the ‘sale’ the upgradable economy tickets COST MORE than before the ‘sale’. Unflipping believable! :/

I must say HEL-BKK are up again for 1195EUR. This price was not available during the last official hours of the sale!

That shows how bad this “sale” was given that was one of the best deals during the sale along with OSL-Oceania and WDH-Europe.

I am glad this faux sale is over with so now they can scheme another sale and hopefully a proper one.

I booked OSL-DPS for £1200 yesterday - thinking it was my last chance before the sale ended - but the fare is still there with wide availability.

Still a decent price for Bali and on the 787 all the way.

Did you have a promo code to get it to drop to that price?
