You don't need an account to check to see if AA is bookable just go into their website.

It seems, giving the BA reps. the exact flight number should help.

I think if you cancel withing 24 hours of flying you get your miles back.
You pay anything less the amount of taxes.

Also, what date are you cancelling ?
Anyone know if it goes back to inventory so someone else here can benefit ?

I was thinking this;
If no availability JFK to YVR but there's availability to HKG,
Book JFK to HKG via YVR, and Call in to cancel second leg.
Possible ?

I don't know which thread to post.
But I received an email from BA (probably you'all did) about tags for carry ons...
