Even better, the T class ticket should earn 150% EQM on AA, not just 100%, so that's around 33,000 EQM. Great find for leveraging EQD.

From LAX this weekend was $1800 - now back up to high 4-digits

GETUPANDGO. I booked on BA website. Enter through the AARP portal. During weeks I was seaching there were 2-3 days each week at $850 each direction. Purchased 15 Feb. Good Luck

Buy an AARP membership and you'll have access to a portal where you may avail of their discounts on BA flights.

No. You'd have to be in full-fare WT+ (fare class W, not T) to do that.

Is the 747 on the LHR-CPT legs the refurb version or old WT+ seats?

The SFO-LHR is the 747-4 v3 and the LHR-CPT is V1

Is a rule that applies to ex-US only?

(I recently booked DUB-YYC-DUB in T and then UUA'd to CW.)

That's actually not correct. All Premium Economy fare classes are upgradable on BA. But other airlines (like CX) do require a fare change to upgrade.

Can you use both avios or cash to upgrade? Or only cash?
