Fairly limited dates but Boston to Bengaluru showing up for $2876 in Jan/Feb

I can't post links to Google flights since I am pretty new but Jan 21-Feb 6 was showing up for me

Also found some dates in March. Although, I can't find anything with less than a 1 week stay in BLR.

cfischer On the Delta website form to search for flights, is there a form field where the ZNN77LDV or other code needs to be plugged in? Thanks!

No, I'm not aware of where you can enter a fare code. Either search ITA Matrix with the fare code to find working dates and switch to the Delta website, or use Flexible Dates at Delta.

There is good availability in Feb 2024 for BOS<->BOM with almost all legs on Virgin Atlantic. The Clubhouse in Heathrow is nice !

I have not been to the Clubhouse since COVID. Is it a zoo now? Are showers ready to come by when the NYC flights land?

the clubhouse is not a zoo anymore, they have restricted it to pretty much business only, not even diamond can enter with a coach ticket. The showers - they have I think 4 stalls and excellent availability, you have to add your name at the front desk to use it. The menus are excellent with hot food delivery at your table - absolutely wonderful and friendly service.
However LHR security is a nightmare, I avoid it if I can and fly via CDG instead - no security if you are in transit FROM the US, CDG will take you via a bus if at a different gate or you can just walk over if same gates (K, L, or M). Only go through custom for schengen if you are in transit to Europe otherwise you can just board directly - pretty cool!

Thank you for the detailed response. I guess it is time to try the Clubhouse again. Agree on CDG, though people claim it is confusing, I have always had a pleasant experience.

We just booked BOS<->BOM for 2/4 to 2/13 with Virgin Atlantic for US$2.8k. 3 legs on VS, one on Delta One and one local flight in India (BOM->DEL) on Indigo. It didn't pop up on Google Flights, ITA matrix, or the VS website. It did show on Kayak and Momondo which redirected to the VS website for booking. We booked after the redirect on the VS website without any problems . Strangely enough: starting the same search on the VS website yielded prices at US$ 7000+ for the exact same flights. Weird.

Our last clubhouse experience about a year ago was great! Nothing to complain about and it certainly beats most other lounges by a good margin. Don't take it from me: even my partner agrees !!
