Enjoy those who can use
Many thanks mikeyfly for the post, I was able to book that route last night for a friend's wedding in HNL in March next year, at approximately the same price. Much appreciated!

AMS-ORD-CDG/ORY r/t in Biz are still pricing out at around 680 GBP if you're into that in March thereabouts. One stopover in MAD/PHL/LHR of your choice, so good nevertheless and even better if you need to get to Chicago anyway.

Though not the best BA TP run because it'll probs get 360 TP - good value at around 1.89GBP/TP, but not the best given that sub 1.25GBP/TP can be regularly hit ex-CMB on QR and on many intra-Asia MH flights.

You can add two free transfers in the US each way to make it 600TP return - as with all standard BA/AA TATL fares.

Do these prices run through May too ?

As you can tell I'm not very adept in TATL/US TP runs

Time to go back to the BA TP run thread for re-education

No, the current ORD fares (discussed in this thread) are fly outbound by 15 April.

Booked other travel in that tight window, and rather busy until a week and a half into May 2017. Looking for July/August travel opportunities, but, alas, not available on this offer.

My advice is to sit tight, there will be similar opportunities emerging.

Coming soon to a computer near you...

I need 34k EQM to extend my EXP. Is this possible to earn these 34k with this fare?

(Note that the fare also allows transfers to Alaska Air i.e. at Seattle to/from Hawaii).

Also, care needs to be taken re checked luggage, as baggage transfers between AA and BA are, ime, shockingly poor at most U.S. airports. HBO is strongly recommended.

Forewarned is forearmed.
Man, what a contribution, please...!

Will be hard since BA earning on AA is usually 1.5x distance for EQM. Add up the flight distance to see.

?? I thought the AMS-HNL-CDG flights are booked on AA (although some of us credit to BA).
