BA Launches New Site To Search Cheapest Fares

How to get the cheapest flights on BA -Times Online

The latest assault by British Airways on no-frills carriers is designed to hit them where it hurts – on fares.
The carrier’s low fare finder, launched today, lists the lowest prices available to all of its 150 destinations, then shows when to fly to bag those fares. BA already has one of the most transparent airline booking engines online, but this new tool nudges them head and shoulders above other airline sites.
BA is clearly tackling the complaints of those for whom the elusive £5 flight to Budapest has remained just that.
It’s an intriguing read – who’d have thought Tirana would be more expensive than Venice or that you can book a flight to Moscow for £256 return – less than a flight to Antalya in Turkey?

Haven't looked at it yet but sounds interesting.

Edited to add: Sorry folks looks like it only works on the UK site:
Still it's an interesting move,maybe they will extend it to Australia.

It will work, you just need to adjust the url.

I tried to paste examples, but your site won't let me.

If you want to see SYD to LON in Economy then adjust the URL on the chart page so that "origin=SYD" and "destination=LON", leave cabin=M

If you want to see Premium Economy then cabin = W, business = J, or First = F

Only works for routes that BA fly direct.

Thanks also for that starting post Jimily!

Agreed that link thing is a pain... I lost a few posts that way because I had links in them.
