Interestingly it seems to be Copa’s longest route at about 3,400 miles. Long trip on a 737!

Unless Im missing something a household account booking for someone not in the household makes it that much more difficult and time consuming. Would have been 10cpp with BA

Not such a big deal. Need to add the name to the “family & friends” list and you’re done (Unless your list is full already).
Once on the topic, I noticed that when I book myself from my BA account I can’t change the mileage number to AA so I can get the free bags for cardholders. Instead I added my name to the F&F list without my mileage number, and then entered it on the AA website.
Open a 2nd BA account?
Also an option. With the Chase bonus it’s 13 cents per Chase point!

Too much of a hassle. Same as adding a traveler to your favorites in the household. Was also time sensitive.

On a different note priving on NYC-CLE makes no sense. Cash is 400+ a week out but on Labor Day weekend it was $115 and point bookings make absolutely no sense.
