Love to fly full fare in C or F? BA and AA have an offer for you…

01/11/2012 by Kevincm

Double Avois or Doube AAvantage Miles?  Depending on which programme you’re married to will depend which you go for (and also how deep your pockets are…)


American Airlines Promo:

American Airlines offer is simple enough – fly to North or South America in First or Business Class in the high fares – get bonus AAdvantage miles.

  • Purchase an eligible First or Business Class ticket on select transatlantic routes
  • Register prior to travel using promotion code UKDBL
  • Travel up to 31 December 2012

Here is the nasty bit – you need to check your fare codes carefully:

  • First Class or Business Class fares booked in P, F, A, J, R or D on American Airlines operated flights
  • First Class or Club World fares booked in F, A, J, C, or D on British Airways operated flights
  • Business Class fares booked in J, C or D on Iberia operated flights

Featured routes:

  • From London Heathrow to: Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Mexico City, New York JFK, Newark, Philadelphia and Raleigh/Durham.
  • Nonstop from Manchester to: Chicago and New York JFK
  • London Heathrow via Madrid to Sao Paulo, Mexico City and Bogota with Iberia

British Airways Promo:

British Airways has a variant of the offer with a few different destinations from London with Double Avios on North and South American destinations as well as a few further afiled in F or J, on BA, AA or IB

London Heathrow to:

  • Singapore, Delhi,  New York (JFK), Chicago O’Hare, Los Angeles, Johannesburg, Dubai, Newark, Philadelphia, Raleigh-Durham, Lagos, Moscow, Boston, Miami, Mexico City

London Heathrow via Madrid (operated by Iberia) to:

  • Sao Paulo Mexico City Bogota

Manchester to:

  • Chicago O’Hare, New York (JFK)

Register at http://www.britishairways.com/travel/double-avios-points/public/en_gb. Travel up to 31st December 2012.

Again, the same conditions as the AA offer you will need to check your fare codes carefully:

  • First Class or Club World fares booked in F, A, J, C, or D on British Airways operated flights
  • First Class or Business Class fares booked in P, F, A, J, R or D on American Airlines operated flights
  • Business Class fares booked in J, C or D on Iberia operated flights

I’d wager the same thing is going on over at Iberia Plus too for those who are members of Iberia Plus.

As to the value of the offer – it’s a nicety if you can take advantage of it, but full fares are expensive. Very expensive if you’re on your own coin…

    The AA promo had a residency requirement in the fine print. Doesn’t say what it is. I live in Dallas and this offer did not appear visible to me when I checked my AAdvantage account “offers” tab. I signed up anyway using the UKDBL code and that’s when I learned the fine print.

    However, I did see an offer under a different code “AAEUR” and when I tried to sign up it said I already had registered.
