Upon further review, turns out it was one of the BA fares that was now "no longer available" for what she wanted. Still showing on the web site, but unavailable in real life.

Many thanks to the EXP desk for solving the mystery, and another gigantic

to BA, again.

What was BA's website quoting for the journey? If it was correct, then the issue would seem to be in AA's court for quoting something that was unavailble , rather than being BA's fault
