If you can give some info, I can look into it...

Good grief. At least I left out half the info. She would be flying BOM-SFO. I will check on flights to LAX; that makes a lot of sense.

So, if I understand this correctly, I would need BA miles to book this? Maybe I can work on that.

Thanks to both of you.
