Not only for 007 fans

AN 18K GOLD-PLATED ASTON MARTIN DB5 - EXCLUSIVE FOR EXECUTIVE CLUB MEMBERS

As the "Official Airline of 007TM", British Airways has another treat in store for a lucky Executive Club member - a scale model of the Aston Martin that Sean Connery drove in "Thunderball" back in 1965. This rare collector´s item was produced in the UK in a strictly limited edition by Corgi, which is famous for its precision scale models.

  Aston Martin DB5

The Executive Club was able to obtain one of these gold-plated masterpieces exclusively for members. With a little luck, you can be the proud owner of this unique collector´s item if you are willing to invest 30,000 Miles.

If you would like to take advantage of this unique opportunity, please send your name and Executive Club membership number to JamesBond@converdata.de by e-mail or  
to +49 (0) 6172 995 379 by fax, and please remember to mention the reference "Aston Martin".

Entries must be received by 15 March 2003. By participating, entrants agree that 30,000 Executive Club Miles will be deducted from their account if they win and donated to "Doctors without Borders". The winner of the model Aston Martin will be determined by a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. Judges´ decisions are final. The winner and all other entrants will be notified by e-mail after 16 March 2003.

Even more attractive fare structure

The new fare structure for British Airways flights between Germany and the UK has been improved to make it even more attractive:

  • Even lower fares in all tariff groups
  • No minimum stay for economy booking classes B and H, which means you can now take advantage of these tariff groups to fly to the UK in the morning and return on the evening of the same day

The three tariff groups are not subject to advance booking. However, if you book early, the choice of available - and very economical ­ fares is obviously likely to be greater. But no matter what flight you book, you´ll enjoy all the convenience and amenities of one of the world´s premiere airlines. Of course, every flight will also earn you award mileage.

And, last but far from least, the new fare structure lets you combine all economy booking classes for even greater savings. To book your flights, please contact your travel agent. Of course, you can also book online under www.ba.com/email/onlinebuchung.

Frankfurt direct to London
Good news for those whose business takes them to the centre of London. Starting in April, British Airways will offer three flights a day ­ in the morning, afternoon and evening ­ between Frankfurt and London City Airport, which is close to the banking and insurance district. Tower Bridge

British Airways now serves three different London airports ­ at fares you can combine to suit your needs. For example, if you fly to London/City, you can fly back home from Heathrow without the slightest problem.

British Airways will be operating RJ100 jets, which seat 100 passengers, on this new route.

Hand Baggage

This new weight limit applies only to individual pieces of baggage. Total weight allowances will remain unchanged.

  • to/from the Americas/Canada/Mexico: 2 pieces, each weighing a maximum of 32 kg
  • UK domestic: 1 piece weighing a maximum of 32 kg
  • All other international routes: FIRST 40 kg
  • Club World/Club Europe 30 kg

New hours
