BA puts Britain on Sale

British Airways are currently promoting Sale fares to the UK from as low as $199.

These are amazing fares if your looking to travel to Britain (or Europe) Between January and April. The fares are good for travel until April 12th. The small print in the BA advertising does warn you that the headline fare is "one way based on round trip travel" and, of course taxes and fees are not included. Weekend supplements (Thursday to Sunday) also apply. There are a limited amount of these fares on flights, and once they have gone.. they have gone! All bookings must be made by Jan 11th.

So, what does the $199 headline fare actually mean when you come to pay the bill. We did a little research and found that the lead price (from New York) comes to $583.00 for a round trip ticket with the government fees and taxes included. Still pretty good. The equivalent fare from Los Angeles is $708.00, from Chicago O'Hare $658.00 and $708 from Seattle. Children under 12 may get a discount of up to 20%.

The fares require an advance purchase of 7 days and the Sunday night rule applies (The earliest return would be the Monday after you arrive). The tickets are non-refundable and heavy penalties apply to any changes you make. 

While the availability appears to be good right now, these fares are sure to disappear fast as flights get booked. So if you planning that trip don't delay to take advantage of these fares. Call or email us today. 

We'll also help you plan the rest of your vacation from tours and tour guides to hotels, transportation and sightseeing. 

UPDATE:
It would appear that Virgin Atlantic are matching some of these BA Fares. In some cases the Virgin Atlantic Fuel Surcharge is Lower, making the total cost even cheaper.  Don't waste your time hunting around looking for the best fare. We'll do the work for you.

In addition to charges made by the airlines, Pinnacle Travel Services may charge a Ticketing or Service fee.
