British Airways launches mega ticket sale
British Airways has announced the perfect way for residents across the Middle East to brighten up their January with the launch of its massive global special fares campaign.
Robert Williams, head of sales - Asia Pacific and the Middle East, said: “The Middle East is home to savvy holiday makers who want to explore new destinations, challenge themselves with exciting experiences and visit loved ones. We want our customers to be able to experience their greatest holiday adventure yet without having to worry about splurging on that extra holiday for the year. Our current special fares campaign helps residents to visit traditionally popular cities, experience exotic places through our new routes and book in their annual visit home.”
Special fares across all routes and cabins
British Airways’ special fares offer runs across all its cabins through to January 24 with travel valid until December 12, 2018. The UK’s national carrier is offering return flights to London starting from as little as BD248 (655.6) in its World Traveller cabins and from BD1,021 ($2,699.4) in its Club World cabins.
Highly-anticipated sporting events, new routes and TV programmes all influence the top travel predictions! Here is a shortlist of destinations that made it to the top of British Airways’ 2018 holiday suggestions:
