Since I may be cutting it close if it arrives in T3 and there are some issues (this is in a couple months), will BA rebook me on AA flights that leave a little later? (BA195 departs at 10am, and no other BA flights to IAH - but many AA flights that connect through ORD, or MIA, or a couple other places). Who would be best to book this flight through to handle any potential issues...BA or AA? I'd get a little more points through AA, but I'd book through BA if they would handle issues quickly. Thank you!
Most of the disruption has been really bad around weekends, school holidays and such. On a random Wednesday in September, I’d wager you’ll be fine. As long as incoming is on time, you should make this. And if you happen to miss it, you’ll get rebooked no problem. I guess I’d probably book the more direct one (unless you’re really keen on the points or there’s a massive price difference) and you will have the backup of rebooking at an AA desk in T3 once it’s clear you’re going to miss the IAH flight.
