You're right. It seems to go to most of Europe would have to be on BA with the surcharges, but one could go TATL to other places.

Is this any way to treat a new (er..old) customer? (he says jokingly, hoping to avoid the flame thrower)
Update: Spoke too soon, card came today.

Got card yesterday. Called to activate. Asked agent if the annual fee applies in the first year. She said yes.

thanks for the response. . the "Stopover" info helps me understand it a bit better. .i was worried with all this talk of not allowing two (metals) or whatever or talk with changing plans. . i was hoping i'd be safe since all with AS but it's nice to be reassured. Thanks again.
Stopover and change plane does not mean you change carrier.
The 2 or more partners option does not even include AS because AS is NOT OneWorld member (BA partner, but NOT OW member - same relationship as AS has with AA).

I know we could not pre-select seats w/o OW Sapphire when we flew BA business class on award tickets. (we are lowly Ruby. 
)
My statement is more towards the poster who claims BA has "shoddy treatment" towards non-status Y passengers. In reality, BA has the same "shoddy treatment" towards award travels in business class w/o OW status.
The new policy if I understand it correctly, does not change that part, but now added the fee-based policy to allow you pay for the privilege to select seat at booking.

This is not a fair or accurate summary of BA's (admittedly unusual, complex and controversial) seating policy.

This would be the most obvious option.
RJ and AY can work as well, with some connections.

Help
Please forgive my ignorance on this but I have looked and can’t find it… How/where do I apply for this card? I tried the Chase site and the BA site can anyone post a link or a telephone number I need to call.
Thanks
Thanks

Spouse and I applied 11/9, approved, 11/12, and both received cards 11/18. I have activated my card and the agent made no mention of the promotional miles or annual fee.

"I don't mean to be rude to a newbie but I have to say this because I am about to burst.....[B]did you read the original (first) post in this thread at all?"
Hey as far as I am concerned all is fair game for me being stupid… But I swear I tried that link and it didn’t work… but I now see it was updated… Missed that.. and after going through 20+ pages I gave up.
Thanks for the info though…. Will see if it gets approved….
