I posted last week about the current (ends 5th Dec) fares to NYC over Christmas and New Year. I was scouting around on Expedia and a number of airlines were doing similar offers for approx £1300.
I noticed that the BA1 - the LCY service - was included in the cheap fares so I ummed and ahhed and finally decided to book it - basically to (a) say I had done the Shannon Shuffle and (b) try and get over my (probbably irrational but based on a bad TATL flight in Y in 2001!) anti-BA feelings
I actually booked the Iberia code share flights which were about £100 cheaper than the BA 'proper' flight.
Originally, I had only intended to cash in my miles but UC Gs were few and not offering the best times so VS only have themselves to blame!
So feeling a little unclean but not entirely dirty !
