On April 14, 2008, British Airways announced a special return fare offer from just 3,900 yuan for customers flying to the UK in its World Traveller economy cabin.

Travellers have until May 18, 2008, to book flights on www.ba.com for travel from Beijing or Shanghai between now and March 31, 2009, and can travel to London or one of seven other cities in the UK, including: Aberdeen, Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Jersey, Inverness or Newcastle.

For an additional 1,000 yuan, customers can travel to Europe via London, including Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy (Milan & Rome), Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain or Switzerland.

Sara Thorley, British Airways Manager China, said: "Our special offer will make an unforgettable trip to the UK and Europe a real possibility. Our network offers our customers the flexibility to travel widely across the region, which we foresee being particularly well received by those visiting relatives, students going to school, business executives, high-street shoppers or a leisure tour to Europe."

By using www.ba.com, passengers can check-in, choose their seat and print their boarding pass 24 hours prior to departure. Passengers with baggage to check-in can then proceed to British Airways' fast baggage drop desks (Island C in T3) in Beijing or (Island E in T2) in Shanghai. Those with only hand luggage can proceed directly to the gate upon presentation of boarding pass.

Visit www.ba.com to take advantage of this special offer.
