Note that all sAAver flights available on AA.com are able to be booked on BA.  When there are many flights on one day, they may not all be listed on BA.com.  So you will have to call to book it.  Get the phone fee waved because it wasn't able to be booked on line.


NOTE: Household accounts will not allow transfers from Iberia to BA. Make sure you don't have a household account, and if you do, split it up.

NOTE: When booking, erase your Avios number when entering your passenger information. This will make it much simpler to add your AA Advantage number at a later time.

Trying to get BA.com to show ORD-LGA for this coming Monday 5/5 en coach.
It's available on AA.com and there are only 2 nonstop flights available that day.
I did switch browsers and put in LGA as opposed to NYC but it didn't help...
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

I have booked tickets on AA with avios points. I need to add an infant. I understand the best way to do it would be at checkin. Do I need any sort of Id for the infant ?

I never needed ID. If the baby is close to two, it maybe worth bringing to show that he/she is under 2

I always try to have a copy of the birth certificate. Although I have never been asked for it.
