Upper sales just aren't what they were.

And to get the £1600 fare you can only fly to Dubai and (rather inconveniently), the flight has to be in 2008.

It's poor quality control. You create a web page and test it. I think someone was rushing to get away for the long weekend.

Shame there aren't any UC specials for LAX and SFO. :-(

The majority of the UC prices are just not sales... Very little difference between the price a few days ago and now.

New York £1759?? B)

Also those dates are not correct, for example I can get that 1759 NYC UC price well past the 31st of August.

I had a quick look at the sale prices and the dates are like all over the shop. Don't think anyone did a proof read before they released the prices and dates. Big faux pas me thinks.

And don't think the prices are that great, though that seems to be the way the sales are going at the moment, yes a discount on full fares, but not the greatest prices. I got a better deal to NYC in the Jan sale.

Did a quick price check for UC NYC. Costs actually increase with a Miles + Money fare by £300, to over £2K.

Does anyone know what time the sale ends? I'm assuming it would be 2359 on Tuesday, correct?

(Stupid question to ask, I know!)

I think it may actually have been that large room of monkeys who have now been given computers instead of typewriters.....
