According to Travelmole yesterday, the cost of flights to Australia are to be based on innings scores during the second England verses Australia Ashes test.
For the second Test at Lord's on July 16-20, the price of British Airways and Qantas economy flights will be determined by Australia's first innings, with availability of seats determined by England's reply.
For example, if Australia are bowled out for 230 and England make 395, there will be 395 seats available from each airline at £230 - a reduction on a typical fare of £730.
Each airline’s website will display qualifying travel periods from July 21.
In the previous Ashes in 2005, BA offered 367 seats at £373 when Australia scored 367 runs for 373 against England in the final test. Flights were sold out within 30 minutes.
Stephen Thompson, executive manager international sales at Qantas, said: “There's always a traditional friendly rivalry between the Brits and Aussies during the Ashes, and this promotion will ensure the second npower test is even more of an exciting showdown.”
