ILX7Y6T0 SEL to LUX

Nice options to optimize

There are, however, reports of stopovers beeing considerably longer than initially planned.
The real challenge will be to interline a ticket with JS

Fare works from PUS too- has been around for a while into most cities into Europe via London.

Looking forward to a comparative review between the BA Burger and the infamous Air Koryo burger...

Dare to compare Imperialist Vuelingish burgers to our Great Leader's favourite brunch meal?

5 years in camp.

Before I have to go to camp and meet the AA guns I want to quickly inform you avgeeks, that this fare also works the other way around. Just combine LUX and a German city and this works. You can also play around and find other destinations in Asia.

BA sale LUX - Asia - German Cities


Discovered that you can also fly this as a regular roundtrip from either LUX or any German city. Adds about 80-100€ to the fare.

It seems both options (LUX - Asia - Germany, as well as Germany - Asia - Germany) must be booked with the BA hotline or a Travel Agent. The OTAs only show them around 1900-2200€.

I can't see the full fare rules. Does the S.W. Pacific free transfer option mean a flight to e.g. Australia could be built in?

Any idea how many BAEC Tier points this would collect?
Thanks

Thanks
40+160+40 LUX-LHR-TYO-ICN
140+40 ICN-LHR-DUS
Total 420 TPs
with the strict routing rules looks like 480 is the max TPs available when going out and and return through TYO.

can anyone with access to the fare rules verify if the LHR-NRT/HND are doable on JL metal/BA marketed?

They are but availability is usually extremely limited.
