Great find! Thanks, OP. It's bookable on Amex Travel, if that helps anyone.

Great find! Am thinking something is wrong with the fare as when you pull in EF it shows as economy but with an A booking code.

Thanks OP, ( think I am allowed to say that with out causing offence ) have booked 2x, one with Expedia UK and the other with BA UK.

Thanks very much OP!

I have booked through Cheapoair for next March to Quito.

I doubt BA honors this deal but it was too good not to try it.

In case they do not honor it, Cheapoair will reimburse their fee?

Thanks,

Thanks OP! This is my first every purchase from the thread. Very excited.

I hope I am correctly using the AA partner chart. This earns 30% EQD on BA and 20% on LA?

Probably not relevant in this forum - but there are lower prices in economy/coach for those that like to travel in the back.

Cannot think it will stick - looks like the Coach fare - but it'll be fun as we haven't had a real mistake fare for a little while.

Thanks OP - couldn't make it stick on AA with matrix script so tried BA, worked like a charm.
Fingers crossed.

I booked on BA.com and it says “First. Confirmed.” I’ve also selected my seats. Thanks OP

Thank you very much. I have booked direct on BA.com and got confirmed seats in First. I have never been in First before only business.
Lets hope they honour this, fingers crossed and good luck to every one if they do !

Booked LHR-UIO via AmEx Travel, April 13 to June 20. Gonna start looking for positioning flights in a few days once I'm sure the tickets won't get yanked - looking at you, AA Brazil! Thanks OP!

Ugh, this is amazing. I was this close to booking this mid-December through JFK. Positioning to London from YVR on miles or cash is making this not worth the run for me.

Booked for June when I'll be in London anyway. Thanks OP!

It's been a while since my Viking flights.
