Not sure if this is a common fare but something tells me it isn't considering J on this route tends to fall around the £2.5k mark for BA/MH (direct flights) - please delete if not much of a deal!

Option 1: £3.3k for F both ways, departing Jan/Feb



Option 2: £2.2k for F outbound, PE return, departing Jan/Feb

To me, that is a no brainer to do both ways in F.

I think it is over priced. It looks not like a luxury sale price.

What I consider a good price to KUL both ways in F is in the range of GBP 2,700

I remember when you could get AMS - LHR - XXX - BKK - XXX - LHR - AMS in J for about £1350 return.

I did this route about 18 months ago and used 31500 avios to upgrade LHR - KUL to F. Great value

On certain route, the use of avios to upgrade from J to F is a better value than ticket redemption. Don't forget YQ for J and F when using avios for upgrade is almost the same.

I guess you get what you pay for, that's even cheaper than J tickets from NA to Asia. Has BA F really fallen that far?

I believe BA is just a Super J and this is the way it should be priced.

Thats not bad at all considering how expensive it has become in the last few years to fly from UK to KUL just in J let alone F. I struggle to find EK for around 2K£ any more as I go twice a year its getting expensive for me.

I did find LGW or NCL - SIN for £3k in F WITH a F discount promotion from EK though recently and I thought that was worth it......
