Also, it need to be a round trip, commencing in the US, and on BA metal. With all that said, I have had to call them a couple of times to get the credit which they did after they researched the issue. The trip does not need to terminate in LHR, it can be anywhere. On one occasion, they have given me credit for a round trip that was booked as two one ways after I pointed that out to them.

Thank you.

So the way I'm reading this, if I want a credit on my wife's Chase card I need to book through her Avios account and use her Chase card. And it can be done as 2 one-ways (hopefully, because I rarely do RT award bookings). And must include USA<->LHR TATL on BA (though connections are ok). So no dice for IB.

Query:
(1) Is the maximum credit $200 per RT towards award taxes & fees?
(2) If she has a different companion on each booking can we still get the $200 credit for her individual tickets?
