Holy moly. I go on vacation for a week and people lose their minds. Nothing takes a few minutes. A well written post takes hours to write and edit.

OMAAT has a staff of 6+, TPG has 24+. I'm one man if you haven't noticed. And I can't even remember the last time I shilled the BA 100K offer compared to daily for those guys.

What do you want me to add at this point anyway? If it's on TPG then they know about it.

Time to add some more staff

Sure, right after I sell out to Bankrate but don't tell anyone about it for a few years.

It takes a long time to make every sentence of every post into a hyperlink to a different CC affiliate link.

If saver validity is there on AA but avios shows no MIA-NYC is it taken?

They only allocate 7 or so per flight savor to avios so who says when there is saver that, that should correspond to avios?

If it's a direct sAAver flight on AA and not showing on BA, call BA to book.

So I BH got my mileage back. Now I want to look for a flight. It says there's no BA direct flight. There's no place to set it to check other airlines. I can only log in BA.COM, not AVIOS.COM. What can I do to use my Avios for another airline? (Want to go NYC to LAS in August). A second question is if I can combine mine and my wife's mileage together into one of our accounts?

Search on aa.com for saver availability.

They offer family pooling, though, you should research it, cuz there are certain restrictions on a family account.

Thanks. Meanwhile I just made a reservation for my wife and I'll cancel it so I can get another three years on hers. I was just wondering, if I need more miles than I have for a particular trip, can I somehow use both of ours?

Does BA show XL (Latam Ecuador) award availability online or does it need to be called in? Cannot find any dates JFK-GYE over the next month.

JFK-GYE is a great deal at 12,500 Avios each way, flight is 2,970 miles.

I think you need to call.
QF site might show it
