  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Are you seeing 65k RT in business ?
The sale is supposed to be only in economy.

32500 Avios + $ 713.58 for JFK-TLV in coach. Not much of a deal.

I dont see where it says only originating in London so I would think that the sale would work both ways

It's definitely a good deal for premium economy, also I think if you book each leg separate, ie; tlv-lhr 6250 avios and then lhr-nyc then it might be a drop less yq.

The first sentence of your link: British Airways has just launched two impressive sales on its Avios reward flights from London.

If I quote a RT I get $713
But if you  quote them separately you get $340 + $294 = $634
Not much better but still cheaper

Still not a deal.
32.5K Avios is worth $400.

Would it work to book at the dates that the deal is coming up and then called to pay a change fee to the dates that you want to really leave??
