I chalked it up to bank error in my favor (a common theme of Business Extra) and sure enough was able to re-use the cert for a flight this past week. This time it was the usual "go see a gate agent, give them the cert, get a paper boarding pass" process.

When I made my booking using the upgrade certificate in January for travel in October, I was rebooked into C. I'm worried I won't get credit for the flight now. Thoughts?

Earning BE points on an Airpass ticket (not possible?)
Searched but couldn't find a thread on this.
I am certain that I have earned BE points on an Airpass ticket in the past. Just heard back from a BE rep that BE tickets don't accrue on Airpass tickets since it is a negotiated rate. Having earned some in the past, I didn't want to rock the proverbial boat here. Any other BE earners on here that also use Airpass?
Thanks ...

The August activity posted to the BE account and no bonus points for the recent TATL promotion. Hopefully next month.

August posted, and only one coach class trip was there, with two business class trips missing.... I am concerned not getting the bonus points if the trips were not posted in the first place.

The bonus for TATL promotion posted to the BE account with a date of 09/19/16. There is no detail for the points that posted and there is some missing points I will have to call about.

Same here....2 of my business flights posted for 1600 points. I'm missing 2 coach flights (both were SWU'ed into C). I'll have to retro claim those.

i'm owed 3200 and nothing has posted. Original flights never posted so BE had to manually post after I submitted a request. I have a hunch I'll never see these points. Ridiculous

I tried searching this in the thread and nada.
Business Extra still recognizes Bolivia as South America zone 2 when it has been changed to zone 1 for aadvantage awards. I know they are 2 different systems, but what are your thoughts on this? Do you think this inconsistency will remain/is on purpose? Are there any other examples? thank you

July business class: flight point missing; promotion posted
July business class: flight point missing; promotion missing (this is the same trip but 2nd ppl)
August economy class: flight point posted; promotion missing
All trips were purchased from BA that I manually added the BE into the reservation online prior to the trip.

Logged in my account as it seems everyone's TATL promotion is posted. What's funny is that I receive one 1600 where the points from the original flight is missing. Here it is what it comes down to:
July business class: flight point missing; promotion posted
July business class: flight point missing; promotion missing (this is the same trip but 2nd ppl)
August economy class: flight point posted; promotion missing
All trips were purchased from BA that I manually added the BE into the reservation online prior to the trip.

However we had three economy flights and 2 business/first class tickets to ahould have been credited 2x 1600 and 3x 400 points total of 4400points so We are missing 3200points from the bonus?
The missing promo points are both ba flights in J/F that had the be number in the booking prior to the flight but yet had tp be retro claimed 👎👎
