looks like they're running a promo to use your MR for AA & UA flights.

Wow! That's a great offer, as you earn miles on the tickets

Wow it seems too good to be true.
1. You would be using the same amount of miles and still earning miles.
2.even if only one seat left you could book many seats by booking them one at a time ?
3.no close in booking fee ?

Maybe I should not transfer all my points to ba after all.

If I understand correctly, this also works for partner airlines.
If You book a biz ticket you can earn tons of miles and also status!
Note that if you cancel, you don't get your points back.

Who pays for the taxes?
Available now through June 30, 2015, this limited time, pilot offer may permit selected Membership RewardsŪ program-enrolled OPEN Card Members to book a one-way or roundtrip airline ticket on American Airlines or United Airlines operated flights (each an Eligible Airline) using Membership Rewards points (Points) in an amount that corresponds to the number of miles that the Eligible Airline requires for the airline ticket under its applicable loyalty program (plus the applicable award ticket taxes and fees, which award ticket taxes and fees must be paid for using your Membership Rewards program-enrolled Card).

So if you book ewr-TLV RT in biz you would earn between 17,000 and 19,000 miles!
