Just booked business (I) tickets on BA form NYC to Moscow through Chase.
I went to BA to book seats and they want almost $100 each leg per seat!!!
Is this penny pinching the same with all the airlines now?
I could fly AA or Finnair for the same price and UA for a smidgen more. Should I cancel the BA and go for one of those?

when check in opens 24 hour before flight, seat selection is free.

Also apparently if you have platinum or higher status with AA, u get free seat selection.

All those others mentioned will be free seat selections.

Might not be a bad way to get some quick cash if you work or live near the city.
Very good pay for a focus group.

No. If the airline requires a passport, you can just make up a number. It doesn’t have to match when you check in.

Where can I find my Icelandair fare code short of PUTPAC? It seems to be non-existent on their website, on Amex Travel's, CMT, etc.

EDIT: Decided to not be lazy and called Amex. Got it in 30 seconds. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Check the seat map online if there is an option to just buy a business class seat.

Thank you for contacting Gogo.
I'm sorry for the past issues, we can only know if a flight will be gogo equipped 24hrs before the flight, since that's when they assigned the aircraft to the flight, you just need to contact us with the flight number and that way we can look it up.
