BA cheap flights over the next two days!!

"British Airways flights from London to destinations world-wide are being sold at knock-down prices over the next two days, as the airline attempts to fill thousands of empty seats following the last-minute cancellation of a strike.

Unprecedented bargains to be had on BA over the next two days include £48.50 one-way from Heathrow to Milan compared to a standard price of around £190, £49 to Rome instead of around £100, £39 one-way to Paris instead of around £90 on an ordinary day, and £37 one-way from Gatwick to Madrid instead of a normal price of around £130.

Long-haul, some flights were also offering bargains, with one of the best seeing a return flight from Heathrow to New York priced at £248.30 today and tomorrow compared to prices hovering around the £800 mark next week.

Passengers can also fly to and from Sydney from Heathrow for £631, instead of a normal last-minute price of over £1,000" Source : Times Online , BA

    you might as well book an extra week off either way just for the journeys....this is BA after all and with their current track record you're probably better off taking national express to hong kong!!!!!! :rotfl:
