Some dates throughout 2021 and 2022. Can use Chase/AARP / Amex IAP discounts.

[mod pls edit: BA J]

Thanks, booked a weekend in Dec for ~$1220. For some reason the AARP discount only took off $65, but whatever.

Looks like most other cities in the UK are available for the same price.

And now BA.com is down for AARP Bookings...

EDIT: If you are having problems like I was, sign out of your BA account before searching.

Can someone please walk a rookie BA buyer through best combo of AARP, Case, IAP Amex uses. Also these are J fares getting 250% EQM from AS, right? Thank you

Thanks OP. SFO-LHR at $1359 via AMEX travel. Was hoping the discount would be a bit more like some others posted here in the 12XX range, but this is still a terrific deal.

If I am 33 and don't have any credit cards (because I was a poor human a few years ago and wrecked my credit) - can I take advantage of any of these said discounts, or are they all card and age related?

If I book over new years, how does EQD work for American? Will I get roughly half of the 1400 credited to 2021, and the other half to 22?

​​​​​​AARP membership can be purchased for around $13 a year. That doesn't require a specific card and doesn't matter how old you are

I actually think this is a preemptive strike against B6. Getting those considering a trip to LON to commit to BA before B6 puts even puts their flights on sale, which should be soon.

Anyone seen a “purchase by date?” Didn’t see one in the fare rules I pulled for a few city pairs.
