Just started to look at what it could cost me next November to fly to Boston.
Using this years dates (26 Nov, to 10 Dec) the V tool shows 7Z's on both routes. When checking the VA web site, it comes up with UC lowest at £1,830
Is this good?

New york also coming out at the same price.....

I usually finid JFK/EWR/BOS & IAD are often very similar in price for UC. Last year I paid a very similar fare to what you have been quoted.

Have you tried fares from AMS [?]

I think the fares quoted are pretty standard.

One thing to think about, on the run to Boston. Personally, I am quite comfortable in PE from LHR-BOS on VS11, but want to be in UC for BOS-LHR on VS12. Why? VS11 is a day flight; VS12 is overnight. You can get some very competitive PE outbound, UC return combinations. Typically about GBP 1,000-1,200.

Just a thought.
