Is there any reason not to book BA flights via AA rather than via BA? I think that the difference is down to the exchange rate, but it's quite significant, some 130. These prices are for exactly the same flights, LGW-JFK returning EWR-LHR:
BA:
4 x 465.52 = 1862.08
2 x 886.52 = 1773.04
Total: 3635.12
AA:
4 x 443.52 = 1774.08

Notice there's an article in the Times today about EDI bidding to have a US pre clearance facility a la Dub.
I wonder if not just EDI but a UK airport outwith LON gets pre clearance first if BA would consider direct flights from these airports. Especially to the East coast of the US
The 788 would be ideal for this and you would think BA would... Read More

Just received "Important Information for [my] upcoming trip to McCarran Int." from Air Canada. It is a thoughtful email reminding me to Pack smart and Arrive early, setting the tone for what I hope to be a serene relaxing trip.
But, my understanding is this airport was renamed almost a year ago complete with new signage and everything? And tha... Read More

Im trying to work out how to book a flight for six of us to the US on BA, with two seats in WT+ and four in WT. The wife and I will be in WT+ (cant afford J for this trip), the kids in WT (the kids are now all 18+, yeah somehow we got old). Ideally I would want us all on one PNR so that in case of IRROPS we all get bumped together. Previously w... Read More

The cheapest one-way I can find to SIN in Polaris at any time is 180K. Looking at round trip cash prices on Google Flights around my dates in March are $10K+ on United, $8K+ on other StarAlliance, and not much better closer in, either.
So what do people consider a good one-way redemption of miles in Polaris for SIN? Read More

I booked an award ticket for my parents using AA miles to fly one-way LAX-SJC (booked them on another airline the other way). It's a 3:15pm flight and they said they got to the airport to check in around noon (I think they said they used the kiosk) and it's the same seat assignment printed on the BP that I got them originally. They get to the gat... Read More

Hi all,
I booked a BA Holiday package in economy. If I phoned up the agent and got the flight upgraded, would the upgraded flight still count for double tier points?
Thanks in advance! Read More

Background: In July 2022, I flew BER-LHR-JFK with British Airways. My flight from BER to LHR was delayed so that I missed my connecting flight. They rebooked me onto a flight 2 days later and gave me a voucher for a hotel for the 1st night (the 2nd night I paid for myself along with transport and food that amounted to $261.68). In my claim I had as... Read More

That's all good, but I realized about an hour ago that I have a problem.
My SEA-SIN booking is actually SEA-SIN-SGN with a 24-hour layover in SI... Read More

I'm looking on DL.com at flights from CHS-LAS on 1/4/2023, and I'm curious about something I don't recall seeing before (granted, I've been flying UA mostly since 2019).
Several flights are showing "Not Offered" for first class. When I look at the seatmap for those flights I see that almost half of First and half of Comfort seats are allocated but... Read More

Got an email earlier in the week saying that they could not auto-renew my Discount Den, some sort of 'failure'.
With my 100k running out, I was keen to get this renewed at the $0.00 price.
Went in several times on both a desktop and an ipad in order to renew, where you actually put your credit card in to pay the $0.00. I consistently got the... Read More
