These fare typically work with the Shareholder Discount, but I have yet to test that.
There is also a good way to up the Tier Points, by using the American Airlines site – www.americanairlines.co.uk – as you can often find more creative routings. (This one earns 140+210+210+140= 700)
LHR to IST, LCA, and ATH is 80 tier points each way in CE, not 60.
@KARFA – Thanks – change made
Why is LHR-NYC only 140 but LCY-JFK is 210?
BA have a special offer for the LCY route which award First Class Tier Points for that route
