Price for Club Class

Can anyone give me a rough idea on a good price for a BA Club Class return between London and Miami please? I’ll be travelling over October half term. Thank you!

Our target for business class is £1500. In recent years we have generally paid £1200 to £1300 (Summer and Halloween are the times we have been going.

I was looking last night for July 2021 and got £4583 for 2 adults and 1 youth so really 3 adults !
The car hire prices are absolutely ridiculous at the moment so think we might book the flights and try the car hire later

If you book flights only you will probably have to pay in full at the time of booking.

Adding on car hire or hotel, even for one day, will create a package for which you just pay a deposit. Final payment then being due a few weeks before departure.

I think this is a big consideration at the moment.

We’re happy with anything under £2k pp.

Just booked next October fly drive with BA for £1600 each, business flights & car so very happy with that (& prepared to risk the deposit if we can’t go!).

I don’t find these super cheap prices people seem to get, aside from these, around £1700 return is usually the best price we’ve found with either BA or Virgin. Although we did get the inbound leg indirect (via Miami) with BA for April ‘19 for £603 each, flying midweek.

I have very rarely seen any of these super cheap prices that sometimes get mentioned and I research flights regularly. I would consider £1500 to Miami an absolute bargain and would expect anything up to £2k.

I always wait for BA’s sale, although I check prices in the couple of weeks before the sale to make sure the sale prices actually are !

Also I’m flexible with dates, 2 weeks + or - and in Nov. I fly solo so perhaps it’s easier to accommodate me and therefore a bit cheap (although I suspect I’m wrong).

I’ve just done a dummy booking for random dates next Oct, flight only and direct for one person. These are results :







I have enough Avios points to reduce that by £130, giving me a grand total of £1,346.28 which I would be happy with.

Good tip, I did not know this!
