The app that gave me the BA details to Sydney, also gives you, for example, very cheap BA flights to USA, as long as you don't mind starting from a European city, such as Frankfurt, Paris or Stockholm. I booked Frankfurt/LHR/NY/LHR/Frankfurt for just over £1,200, business class. It's no hassle to go to Frankfurt, I can visit friends, or boys, there! Clearly I do not intend to use the LHR/Frankfurt leg. They also had v cheap fare, Stockholm/NY/CPH. Not so convenient but cheap. Other US destinations also. You book with the airline direct. There is a small annual charge 'skip@luxuryflightclub.com'

Try two boys?

Familiar cry. I am on Line, but do not know how to use it! I need to know before my next trip in January!

Seatspy covers 13 airlines, including Virgin, United, and American.

I rarely buy airmiles, but did succumb to a BA offer last year. I tend to travel BA, as I am based in London. I use seatspy, which is pretty good. I am on various apps, one of which, and I can't remember which, told me BA had suddenly opened up more Avios seats to Sydney. I only had 30 mins, but booked a business class seat, Sydney return, normally very rare, for reduced Avios.

White pudding?

Fun though, especially with black pudding!

Brown envelopes galore!!

Yes, I am hoping I can get to my hotel on the same day that I land!

Photoshop may have something to do with it!

I aim to be trying it in January! Wish me luck!

Gosh, what a surprise!

But more opportunities for brown envelopes!

I agree, the Beer Bar has some interesting posts.

Ok father...

To whom should I confess?

It was quite fun. Got to the meeting in NY before I set off, so to speak!

Thanks for this. As you know I have an interest in HK!

I hesitate to say it, but so did BA if you were on Concorde!

It's a shame it doesn't work on the BTS, but I keep my Rabbit card topped up!

I prefer to think that I was looking after them, temporarily!

Remember the chaos when they opened Terminal 5 at Heathrow!

BA used to serve an Austrian eiswein in First on their flights to Qatar. I also remember the good old days, pre business class when First class cutlery was silver. Strangely, I still have some. Fillet steak being carved at your seat, fantastic grilled jumbo prawns on Varig (RiP). Free helicopter transfer JFK to centre of the city. Memories.....

Sorry! Most expensive dessert wine available!

Which was odd, as on the last trip the MC worked on the ordinary machines!
