Google flights show BA and AA at £1550 but a travel agent as £1323. First and only travel agent I tried was Expedia. And indeed this was the fare.

Anything I should be aware of before booking? It was a Finn Air flight number, but assuming this won't affect TP and Avios earning?

And how would I enter my exec number so it knows I'm silver and can choose my seat.

Also any other travel agents I should be using?


Thanks in advance
TBH if I was you and there was a price difference of £227 I would prefer to book through an airline rather than an OTA.
When you do that, you can talk to the airline at the airport or phone and they sort any problems out if they occur due to IRROPS, rather than trying to get hold of on OTA who most likely will not be of much help, but it's a personal preference of course
