Direct Award on Partner Airline
I'm trying to book an award flight that goes direct. BA.com insists on offering me BA operated flights via LHR. Is there any way to force ba.com to show me partner awards or is the only option to call?

One thing you can try is to switch your search date to a few few days earlier, where BA does not have its own award available. The site should then gives you the option to search on partners, and you can use the "next 7 days" link to navigate back to your intended departure date and book from there.
As colmc said, this depends on the partner. BA.com doesn't support some partners, such as AS, and you also need award availability in order to book the flight.
