V-Flyer

Saw this on HFP earlier today and very tempted!
There are business class flights LHR-USA on VS/DL selling for around £1.1k. Seems to be on BA direct routes that VS/DL service indirectly (e.g. OAK, SJC, PHX, SAN). Tends to be VS metal for the transatlantic hop. Plenty of availability in Nov/Dec, a couple hundred more in Sep/Oct.

Im tempted as can get this price for New Orleans too for xmas!

Wow, good find!!!

I can see many LHR>OAK via LAX Z fares for ~£963 in November!!!

Wow, that’s tempting!

What’s hfp? Did you have to trawl through loads of dates and destinations to see those fares,or is there some kind of matrix showing it?

HFP = headforpoints its a airmiles/hotel miles blog. Someone commented today on one of the articles, not sure how they found it!

Wow. Great find. I received two out of three HfP emails today, didn't get this.

Just booked West Coast USA for £1012rtn.

Thanks!

FLL is also on the list of bargain fares.

Can you post a link to Head For Points as I can't see on there at the moment.

Ah, I see, didn’t realise! I do remember receive head for points mails, but not received any in the last couple of days....

That's the one thing I hate about HFP is that people post all sorts of stuff that bear little relation to the article and unless you are that way inclined and read every comment you don't see the offers that people post and unless Rob (who runs HFP) picks it up it dosen't get wider circulation.

All these fares end up on flyertalk anyway.

Thank you for posting this OP, truly exceptional fares. You can route these fares via pretty much any VS USA stop as well, very flexible.

Seems like its been pulled now ....

Looked at lhr to Austin Texas for formula 1 late last night and was showing £1174 uc.
Checked again this morning and it is back to £3300. I suppose if you snooze you lose with fares like these. But many thanks for highlighting.

Yes we were looking at Christmas dates, woke up this morning to book and now gone!
Should have booked straight away as peak miles redemption rates and lack of availability on chosen dates means back to the drawing board!

Thank you for posting this. Although I subscribe to hfp I had missed this. I have managed to book Christmas and New year in FLL for £1154 UC so thank you.

Where did you get this fare?

These fares were available for a very short time, less than a day. It's long gone now.
