kills the deal for me

so much for the quick trip to London valentine present.....the 99 fare works out to a grand for 2 round trip....warm but not hot

<edit>
me bad only 584 for two to London from LA. .........back to hot...but not boiling...i think the BA website is getting hammered

thanks for the post anyway it was fun to play on the BA website like Mathew Broderick in ' War Games'.

BTW, I believe American Airlines is quietly matching these prices, so check out AA if you want to earn AA miles.

Before any gets all wound up about getting in on the BA deal before it ends tomorrow. Check around. Virgin Airlines is actually cheaper even with the BA special. United is only about $30 more. This deal isn't that special. It's just the standard winter rate. The $99 round trip they used to have from New York before taxes were $100 was a real deal.
