Check on that...if they're eVouchers, they can be used on BA, but I think AA has to be on one of the TATL legs. I see you're in LAX, so you could do LAX-AA-LHR-BA-XXX-BA-LHR-BA-LAX. I think.

I managed to use some vouchers on AS metal (AA coded) for domestics. That better get me some AS miles -- AS said they would.

I also strategically booked some to minimize the domestic leg and maximize the international leg (e.g., SFO-LAX-YYZ and SFO-LAX-MBJ) where the only domestic leg is is insignificant.

This AS-AA change is definitely ridiculous. I'm flying more UA as a result of it.


Good luck!
