Register them for the promo. they would need FFN's.

So the infant would have to be on a fare, not infant fare, right?

For this price, you book full fare. Especially if you can earn all those miles.

Is everyone finding that you can no longer select biz class on the AARP site?  It's only allowing me economy.

Quick question,
In order to get the 25k AA, i need to put in my AA number instead of a BA during the booking process? (I have no need for more BA points..)
About to book..

Made Baby an account (Older DOB) and registed, but it says this:
"Sorry, adults considered to be older than 11 years old. Please reenter the birthdate for the Adult passenger 3."

Can the baby's year be totally off for TSA?
(Is this what dan always makes a joke about)

Actually I did what Marco said and that worked. I.e., select economy and on the next screen you can choose biz. Thanks, Marco! I was able to make a 2nd booking and will cancel the first (switching dates might've been possible, but I was already on hold for quite a while and didn't want to waste more time on the phone in case I missed out on the deal).

You could always say you "fat fingered" the DOB.

Glad it worked.

How did you verify membership? Clicking on the "verify membership" link doesn't work
