Airline sales | January 2012

Most major airlines have launched their Christmas/ January sales, and there are some great deals available. I’ve trawled through the mediocre ones and picked out some of the best sale fares available. There are some crackers in there – £386 to Los Angeles, anyone? – but availability dates vary by airline and destination. Check on the individual airline website for full details. Most of the sales run until mid-January (although a couple and on the 4^th) – but here’s my destination by destination list of the best bargains, based on economy class return flights out of London.
