Sale season kicks off

21/12/2012 by Kevincm

Well, it seems that some airlines are now fighting for sale fares as we enter the Christmas Season in the UK.

The big ones to look out for so far are:

  • British Airways – Long Haul in World Traveller/World Traveller Plus Flight sale. All the usual destinations. Book by 22/01/13 with a nominal travel period of 25/12/12 to 31/03/13 (although good luck finding anything cheap in December). Some routes are showing much longer lead times to 31/09/13 (Far East and Middle East), 30/11/13 (Caribbean Routes)
  • Virgin Atlantic –Flight sale with various destinations. Offer ends:22/01/13 Travel period, 25/12/12 – 31/03/13</

As usual, I’d expect codeshare partners, Joint Venture partners, and even other alliances to join up for a general fare war in the UK/Europe area which will last until 22/01/13 with travel to 31/03/13 (a quick glance shows AA are matching fares, with cheaper fares through the summer period).

Whilst not mileage run material, it could be worth considering if you need a break to get away from things.
