It’s that time of year again where British Airways has a sale to sell of some of its seats – this time, with Business Class and First Class long haul seats up for grabs.

Most destinations are up for grabs in the sale, with World Traveller (Economy), Club World (Business), Club Europe (EuroBusiness) and FIRST (First Class) being offered.
Notibly, some destinations aren’t in the sale, or only being sold in certain classes.
And since we all like a bit of a premium seat bargain, I’m looking at Premium Seats in this price list
Here’s a list of the starting prices for those who have a hole in their pocket:

Needless to say, these are all starting from prices. Tickets must be booked by the end of 17th May 2016, with certain travel dates and a Saturday or Sunday stay requirement depending on the destination.
British Airways fare sales do have value where you can find them, and can represent a reasonable reduction against normal fares.
Although it could be an idea to keep an eye on the Frequent Flyer forums for those of us who wish to maximise their Tier Points – there are ways of milking these point runs
Yours truly will be digging around to see if a decent ticket can be had with oodles of Tier Points… this year of Silver isn’t what I’d call great to be honest.
