British Airways has loaded another range of World Traveller (Economy) and World Traveller Plus (Premium Economy) fares for travel to destinations worldwide on selected dates. Periods of availability vary by destination, reflecting seasonal and demand variations. As usual though, the best availability exists in the early stages of the promotion booking period, and all bookings must be made be 23:59BST on 14th July 2015. Booking deadline extended to 23:59BST on 21st July 2015.

Overall, average sale fares appear to be 7% higher than in the last comparable World Traveller sale, and 12% higher than the last World Traveller Plus sale. This is largely driven by some cities, principally in North America, having escaped the ‘Sale’ fairy dust completely. Thankfully, many other fares are within £1 or £2 of the last sale’s prices.

Although premium cabins are not included in this promotion, there are some tactical offers still around. Washington DC, for example, is currently available from £3141.06 return in First Class, which is not only £52 cheaper than the last First Class sale fare, it also represents an upgrade cost of just £100 each way from Club World business class.

All sale fares qualify for Avios and Tier Point credit in the British Airways Executive Club frequent flyer programme, as well as OnBusiness points for small and medium sized enterprises enrolled in that programme. Following the April 2015 changes to the Executive Club, earnings rates have changed and Avios and Tier Point amounts can be checked using the Earnings Calculator.
