Kept trying and trying and finally able to pull up flights out of LGA. It wouldn't allow me to have less than 120 minutes of connection time at ORD.
Will probably take the nonstop from JFK outbound and EWR inbound to make life simpler right now!
Thanks for all your help!

What is your valuation of AC miles? That number will tell you if you are making a good decision.

B757 angled seats?

How many EQP earned for this fare?
If I purchase the ticket on BA site, BA flight #but AAMetal, I class, do I qualify for the 2.0 EQ Points (rather than regular 1.5 EQP)? Promo T&C says flight must be AA marketed so I assume I must purchase on AA site as purchasing on BA seems to me that would be BA marketed. I called EXP desk 3 times. #1 said qualifies for 2.0, #2 called another desk and said does not qualify, #3 switched me to AAdvantage desk with 40 minute hold so I hung up.
I want to buy on BA to use AARP savings. T&C don't state purchase must be on AATicket stock. What do you think?

If the centre section is three and you are two, take two centre aisles--the middle seat will be one of the last booked, and even if it is filled that person will likely be happy to switch with you or your travelling partner.
I am fully prepared to stand alone on this!

AARP discount not reflected?
I'm having a hard time getting the AARP discount to reflect -- the first time I tried, it showed the revised price but forced me to close a different window. Now, every time I open it up (I've used new windows, logged in and out, etc.) it isn't reflecting the adjusted AARP discount. Anyone have suggestions?
UPDATE: I had to go to a different computer but eventually made it work. There must be cookie issues.

I just tried to buy two tickets EWR-ORY in the BA website (link from the AARP site). Everything went fine until I tried to pay (chase Sapphire credit card). It said to wait while the payment was processed and showed the "verified by Visa logo. After that nothing happened and it took me back to the home page. I did not get any emails about having bought the tickets. I don't think the payment went through. Has this happened to anyone welse?

[QUOTE=Calchas;24681648]It is a hard coded restriction in the BA multicity tool, notwithstanding the true MCT.
It is a perennial irritation, unfortunately it can only be evaded on the phone or in person.
I believe the discount applies only to BA metal.
It applies to BA marketed, AA Operated birds too. Bought mine

The AARP discount applies to any BA marketed flight. The credit card discount can only be used if all the flights are on BA metal.
