Don't suppose anyone is seeing anything similar with USA origin? I'm not, but just thought I'd ask in case I was missing it.

PRG-SFO is not priced badly either.

Seems like US origination rarely gets any love...

Has anyone had any luck making these fares (and the J ones) into a BA Holiday? Every time I do the air fare jumps by around 300GBP

I think only TAP regularly offers low J fares from the US to EU these days. I'm currently thinking about the SFO-LIS flights in Spring/early Summer for $1541 (to use as positioning flights for the one on this thread). Restrictions have to be lifted by then...right?

It is because in the JV each side of the Atlantic set their own prices for the JV. For some time LH was dumping prices to drive Norwegian out of the market by destroying any yield. Europe also had/has a bigger seat oversupply on their side. This means there are more seats to fill especially the short hauls giving more option to combine into something cheaper. The oversupply is generally why there are so many deals out of Europe. ME3 also don't help in propping up fare on long haul flight.

ITA shows 5/31 but it looks like BA.com has the lower pricing until EOS.

The $2645 DFW-LHR F price is also available on AA metal. I don't know who would choose BA F over AA F!

Did you mean LHR-DFW? Would love to ex-US fares that low.

Wow. Nice find. What dates are you seeing? My GF calendar fare range isn't even close to that price for F. Even J is higher most of the next year.

My sample dates were June 10th - 18th. I didn't check J. I will later. This was via ba.com

Just tried those dates for DFW-LHR on both kayak and ba.com in F, got round trip fares well above $5000. Might have been a short-time mistake fare. Or did you mean you got that fare for just the outbound portion?
