US Chase BA 10% off, work on MFU?
is there a way to book an ex US, WT+ mfu to CW throught the ba.com/chase10 link?
the 2012 BA booklet that arrived today said it is 10% off any flight booked with the Chase Visa, thru BA.com,
However I don't see how to do it with an MFU.[ booked as a pay and upgrade with avios, not upgrading an existing booking with avios]
booklet t&c's dont seem to exclude mfus
thanks!

I tried to do this earlier this year, EWR _ LHR, MFU WT+ to CW, I could not get the 10% to apply. I didn't want to lose my chosen flights (only 1 reward seat left message) so I went ahead without the 10%. Good luck and please post the solution if you find it as I hope to repeat the trip later this year.

Trying to work on the same situation. Couldn't you book the WT+ fare in cash on ba.com (with the 10% discount) and then a few hours later call an agent to upgrade with Avios? If they say no, then just cancel the flight as it's within 24 hours?

I MFU'd from CW to F earlier this year, the option to upgrade came after I booked the ticket, availability however didn't open up until the last few days.
It may be worth trying to type CARDOFFER4U , ( I think that's the code ) at the payment stage of the booking.

Thanks for the info. They really do try to make it as difficult as possible to use their benefits.

I have mfu 3 flights in the last two months from cw to f that were purchased with the chase discount and never had to refund. In fact, wife is on one such upgrade tonight.
