Just pricing up some AA YUP fares for November and they seem to have increased a lot. MCO|MIA|SFO return was pricing at £450 via aa.com but now the cheapest I can find is about £700 - bangs goes the saving with BA

Having read the T&Cs again I wonder if all the flights I have booked since the 16th June will be eligible for the double miles. All that has to be done according to the terms is that a flight must be booked in the right class and not dependent on entering any special codes. And if this is the case then all the flights we book until the 30th July should also be eligible.
I have also noted that this promotion cannot be used with any other promotion. So I wonder if a 'Worldtaste' discount negates the double miles?
A Little confusing and how does one explain this to BAEC when trying to claim these miles?

The big 'D' for discount on the booking date pages means unable to MFU.
Shame.

However I supose it depends where you what you want to MFU.
I would imagine New York wouldn't be the best choice if Club World is coming in at £900 all in after the discount.

When I will be at LGW over the next six weeks every weekend I simply cannot justify £172 a night (plus parking and Diesel of course, before even talking about the cost of the flights....

Bugger. I had booked my LHR-LAX/BOS-LHR at the begining of the month as the CW sale was due to end on the 7th, but then exetend to the 30th.
Now the exact same flights are £800 for the two of us.
Shame BA don't do as UA and let your reticket at the lower fare and give you vouchers for the difference.
