BA Avios question(s)

[MEIR613]

Why does everyone think you get free bags with avios tickets? everyone has been asking me that lately!

I know many people that have gotten it with out Status and their AA on the ressy.

YMMV

can you get? Maybe. It sounded like he was asking if he's entitled to get. The answer to that is no

[meshugener]

do you have any status? If not, then no

Or if he carries the personal Citi AA CC.

But I'd say like 80% of Avios issued tickets get free bags & priority boarding, just because of who knows what.

A Avios ticket booked almost a week ago but still not ticketed on AA.
What does that mean?

Probably a DOB issue.

I made some small tickets for 3-4 friends as a favor, and got this message, and almost 200,000 points was taken away from my account,

"In line with all major companies which operate a financial rewards and incentives scheme, British Airways constantly reviews transactions on its Executive Club members’ database.  This is to ensure compliance with the Terms and Conditions of the programme and to protect our members from any activity, which could be considered unusual.
Our records indicate that tickets in the names of various third parties have been redeemed from your Executive Club account between xxxx and xxxxx.  This pattern of activity is high when compared to the average redemption rates on Executive Club membership accounts.
I realise that there may be a reasonable explanation for this, but in case you are not aware, trading of Avios Points amounts to a contravention of Clause 19 of the Executive Club Terms and Conditions (Non Transferability Of Mileage), a copy of which can be found on the British Airways website: http://www.ba.com.
In order to bring the review of your account to a swift conclusion, I would be grateful if you would provide confirmation that redemption bookings made on your account have been made in accordance with the Executive Club Terms and Conditions.  Please reply to me at the address below, by xxxx.
In the meantime, until we can resolve this, I have regrettably had to suspend your account which means you will not be able to redeem your Avios on flights.
If you have any questions about any of this or require more information please do not hesitate to contact me in writing at the above address.
Best regards"

Is there a better way to search for availability for an air berlin flight from jfk-tlv than having to click each indivudual date on ba's website?

I was on BA.com to book a ticket on AA for my daughter.  It asks if the cardholder is traveling.  I click no.  When I put in the passengers name, it unclicks 'no' and leaves it blank.  Then it wont go to the next page.  If I click 'yes', then it fills in my name and if I change the name, it unclicks 'yes' again.   
The avios desk is closed for the night, tomorrow is July 4th, and I'm worried I'll lose the availability.  (I took a screen shot of the available tickets for what it's worth.)

Help!  What can I do?  Anyone have this experience?

Not sure, but I remember having issues with the mr./mrs. When booking for children, so when searching I put them all as adults. If that is not the issue, try using a different browser.

Just reclick no, it should work.

DIFFERENT BROWSER!!!!!   It worked!  I'm so relieved!  Thank you sillypainter for that advice. 

Meir613, it wouldn't stay clicked once I put in the first passenger's info since the info wasn't mine.  Thank you for your encouragement, too.
