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.

6/22 ORD-LGA AA flight 350 at 735pm has saaver availability on AA, and on BA.com I am getting "Sorry, there are no flights available on Monday 22 June 2015." This never happened to me before. I really don't want to call... What am I doing wrong?

Some screen shots, it should show all flights on the same page, where do you see that there are more flights available?

Yup if you see on AA and not on BA you will have to PUTPAC and get them to waive the phone fee because you cant book it online.
