Lax to YYZ
I am trying to book award travel on partner AA for July 4th returning on July 11th. AA.com is showing me award availability for economy award travel but BA.com shows nothing available. I have checked other dates as well and there is no availability, at all on other dates.
Just checking to see if there is any availability at all for the above dates for award travel using BA miles.
Thanks

All,
Could someone tell me about availability on BA 119 (LHR-BLR) on the 5th June ?
I need to book tickets for my boss but just want to check before if I can wait a bit more.
Thanks a lot in advance !

Getting tickets to Europe from SFO in the end of September
We are trying to get FF tickets from San Francisco to Europe at the end of September (Sept 25 or nearby and coming back 2 weeks later) Ideally I would like to get to Lisbon but would be OK with going to London and buying the ticket to Lisbon myself. According to ba site everything booked on BA and their partners. Are there any tricks for getting the tickets ?

Help! Is LHR-EWR 17:30 7/5/10 overbooked?
Paid WT+ for 2 adults and upgraded with miles to Club for both for MAN-LHR-EWR travelling Friday 7th May on the 17:30 out of LHR. Looked at flight seats today and there is only 1 seat left available to reserve! Being a 767 there is no first class for others to be upgraded to.
Will this situation change at check-in 24hrs before or do I need to prepare myself for being bumped back down to WT+?
Will BA allow me to move to the JFK flight later in the day if Club is still available on that flight? ( Any cost?)
No status with BA. Any info appreciated.

Do you mean that you looked at an actual seat map for the flight (e.g. on Expedia) or at reservation availability?

Logged into my Exec Club account and chose manage reservation. Chose to select seat which would normally say it is £60 per person to select a seat. This is the seat plan that shows only 1 seat left to reserve on the aircraft.

The seatmap isnt a firm indicator of flight loads, as not everyone chooses (or is allocated) seats in advance. That could probably be someone who just hasnt had a seat allocated. The actual flight load is showing as J0, i.e. no seats left for sale.

Reward availability to SFO
Hello!
I don't have 200,000 miles so it won't let me check for availability for 2 CW seats to SFO next year. Could someone please check for me? Departure/ return dates are not fixed but must include March 18-23.
Preferably departure: 16th/17th return 23rd/24th.
Thanks!
