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.

Is using Avios the best (cheapest) way to book a flight from NY to Orlando FL for Pesach? If not, can someone tell me of other good (or better) ways?

I checked SW and they didn't open pesach dates yet.

You don't have enough Avios in your account so they are charging you for the missing Avios.
