Planning ahead as per usual. Expert flyer telling me that there's Z class availability on flights out from LGW-BGI and back next May. Gone on to the VS site for prices and it's coming out at £3028 each! Am I missing something, or this the going rate for Z nowadays?
Did this trip in April of this year, out Z and back D, and it worked out around £2100...

ExpertFlyer - Fare Information. Put in your route and dates in May comes back with all the buckets and prices. So I'm guessing they have "released" Zs but not populated the fare bucket. Although I bow to other's superior knowledge of how all of this works.

That'd be my take UNLESS VS choose not to release any because Revenue think they can sell all of the J/Ds....

The Z's are there for MpM at the moment. Just because a fare class shows up in a GDS/ExpertFlyer, does not mean a correspondign revenue fare will ba available usign that fare class.
Thanks,
