Does BA's method not mean you can only buy tickets worth half your credit card limit minus any existing spend?
Interesting point!! I have a comfortable credit limit on my Amex, so I never really think about that [unless I do car rental at the same time as air tix, in which case I transfer some cash to the Amex as a safety net].

Whoops ... how does this actually work?
