Also, the AA record locator doesn't seem to work on BA.com or checkmytrip.com. Is there another locator number to view it on ba.com or aerlingus' site?
You have to call BA or AA to get your BA record locator.

Agreed. This fare comes around every year. It was always CO that offered from EWR first, and then DL followed.

Anyways, found some BOS-LHR-AMS-DUB r/t for 430.

I went to Dublin last December paid $700 fare for 8000 MQM as I was short by 5000 MQM for delta for my platinum

Have done the same couple of years ago to Brussels

As I am new at all this I don't have any history to go by... Are many of these "good deal" fares to Europe coming in August? I'm looking for November deals (to europe) and wanted to know the best time to lock in my price...

I entered my AA FFN number into my reservation. I'm AA Platinum and UA Premier Gold. Will I be able to get into the bmi lounge in LHR Terminal 1 for my Aer Lingus leg?

Actually looks like the bmi lounge in terminal 1 is now a BA lounge

There are some cheap flights MSP-ORD on UA, so I picked up a fight MSP-ORD (UA), ORD-LHR (AA), LHR-DUB (EI) for $610 ai....

I booked JFK-CDG-DUB for $450 (less a voucher) 9/27-10/1 on AF metal. That routing gives me 2k more MQM than the nonstop, and enough to get PM before my JFK-IST trip so the $99 I paid for EC will be refunded.

Short layovers in Paris which has little impact on my time in Dublin. First time I'll be there.

Edit: have not seen a good thread on A380-800 seating. DL's website of course doesn't show the right seat map.

Seat Preference?
Does anyone have any seat recommendations for DL 92 and DL91...Looks like they are 757-200?? Never flown this route and curious if 19F is a good option (since there's no 3rd seat in front?). I do get complimentary EC, but looking for your thoughts on what's best?

Thanks!

PS--Just booked 2/14-2/18. a nice President's Day weekend trip.

You have to watch 19F because the door slightly protrudes in all of that potential leg space. The two seats in front (Row 18) are fantastic. I'm 6'5'' so for me on a long flight they are more of a necessity.

Dates for this? Can't find anything like this... :-/

Is there more inventory out there than what's listed on ITA?

Becaue with all these airlines supposedly offering this fare, the inventory displayed on ITA is remarkably sparse (aka "almost non-existent").
