Specify the routing as follows. In the From box, enter
DUB :: BA LON BA003 JFK AA
and in the To box, enter
MCO :: AA JFK BA LON BA
The double colon means "routing codes follow". Codes are interpreted in the exact order you type them.
BA means "exactly one direct [but not-necessarily non-stop] flight with any BA flight number", LON means "connect at this point at any London airport(s)", BA003 means "exactly flight BA 3", the rest is quite straightforward.

Re above
I can price this out on BA and am wondering two things:
Can the BMI Credit Card discount be applied?
BA comes back with the US domestics in I is there any way to force these in F
HNY

One must book by telephone, and give the AA flights by their AA numbers. Also specify that you do not want code shares (if asked, you can be straightforward and say you want the F tier points, no dishonesty there) and double check the fare buckets when you get the quote.

The BMI discount has to be a simple AAA-BBB-AAA with AAA being a UK airport, I believe.

Any thoughts on not taking the final DUB sector as bags would be checked to LCY?

Im trying to book a trip to NYC and Boston(with a TP run in between) with BA and my starting point is GLA via London however i want to mix up travel classes so fly economy out and PEC back.
Is there a booking system anywhere that will allow me to price that up as BA doesnt seem to allow it on a multi-city option?
I
Thanks in advance
