British Airways is inaugurating it’s tie-up with American Airlines and Iberia by launching a fantastic, almost too good to pass up sale from 19 US Cities Direct to London.
These fares are simply fantastic!
Not only are the airfares almost too good to be true – British Airways are also throwing in 2 free nights at a hotel in London.
Here are some sample airfares:
- New York (JFK and Newark) $412
- Boston $488
- Philadelphia, Houston $518
- Washington, D.C., Baltimore $504
- Miami $618
- Chicago, Orlando, Tampa $638
- Atlanta $598
- Dallas/Ft. Worth $720
- Las Vegas $658
- Denver $558
- Seattle, Phoenix $638
- Los Angeles $613
- San Francisco $558
As usual – these fare calculations don’t include taxes and fees which will add about $188 to the ticket. Still, even with that added, these fares are GREAT.
I booked a fantasy trip to London from Chicago over Thanksgiving weekend and the grand total with airfare was $1500.
Also – something that’s not in the advert – if you login with your BA website account, you can save another $20 per person.
Here’s the fineprint for the sale:
Roundtrip airfares begin at $412 between New York (JFK or Newark) and London. Comparable airfares are available from all 19 British Airways’ U.S. cities. Prices are available for sale through Tuesday midnight (EDT), Oct. 26, 2010. Travel is valid from Oct. 21, 2010, through Apr. 3, 2011 (excluding Dec. 20-22, 2010).

If you’re dying to go to London and were waiting for your chance – now would be a great time.
