I called AA and the CSR told me that BA's taxes were going to be $350 more to my AA award itin.

In your opinion, is $350 worth going first class in BA rather than AA?

Thanks!

I think staying with your AA booking is the way to go. The F suite in the 777 is a great product...a big improvement over other F products for AA. For a 6-7 hour flight I wouldn't waste the $300 (or $450) and would rather use it to upgrade another flight in the future.
