3) Does anyone have a biz extra 800 number?

thanks in advance!

Someone can correct me if Im wrong, but I am 99% sure that AA still requires BusinessExtraa tickets to be purchased on 001 (AA) ticket stock. While you can earn miles on BA, you cant have it on BA ticket stock (purchased on BA.com).

This was even that way with US Airways until October 17. You could earn on US Airways flights, but only if you had it on 001 ticket stock. I lost out on about $1300 in tickets from that one.
