High BA fares result from premium services, costly airport fees (especially Heathrow), fuel expenses, and their global hub-and-spoke model prioritizing lucrative long-haul routes.

For better deals: be flexible with dates, book early, check "flight + hotel" packages, use Avios, look for sales, consider alternate airports, and factor in baggage fees.
