Thanks!

That's no bargain for Economy. It's possible that there's better award-seat available with B6 than with AS, but when the AS nonstop is available, look what BAEC charges:

And as you can see, unlike QR, BA does not improperly collect the $4.50 U.S. PFC on domestic redemptions, which are free of carrier surcharges.
