That is an AA flight, so yes it can be booked using Avios. Try searching AA.com instead of BA.com and if you see SAAver availability, it can be booked with Avios.

Will there be AA fuel charges or it can be booked as a air berlin ticket without the fuel charges?

If booking through BA, yes there will be fuel surcharges on that flight.

I just got off phone with BA in Singapore regarding an Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Copenhagen on July 30 or Aug 2. They told me there is only Business available, and it would be 7500 Avios & $78. It's a 774 mile flight; shouldn't it be 15k in Avios?

Isn't the YQ a lot of money with that route?

Anyone have recent experience with booking an avios ticket on BA for a friend? Is it risky?

Are you worried that she told you the wrong amount or that you'll be charged too little?
Is she quoting OW and your thinking RT?

Did you happen to check if there is actually business class availble?

I Just booked a flight from DUB-ATH with BA, and they said only business is available, but I checked the flight, there is no business class....can anybody explain that?
