I read that AA (miles saver only) and Oneworld flights can be booked with Avios. I believe the best way to search for these is on aa.com and award nexus. The question is how do I book them with my avios? I see a statement that for straightforward bookings, I should be able to do this online, but I wasn't sure how. Do you just have to use their search for flights and find the same one? I haven't seen many (any?) AA or oneworld partner flights when I was searching for flights that are being booked with avios at the british airways site.

Any thoughts?
You search on ba.com using avios as you would search for BA reward flights. ba.com often has problems finding/displaying partner award flights involving connections. In that case, you search for the connecting flights individually and then call baec to book.
