No AA flights for certain days with BA?

I've been trying to get round this for weeks ... we want to fly to Orlando on 4th April. On the BA website, the only flight options that come up are direct with BA or indirect with Aer Lingus. I cannot get it to show me the indirect flight options with BA/AA. Why is this? It's the only day of the whole month which is like this!

I am assuming you want to travel from London - as you haven't given any detail in your post and it is the run up to Easter and flights will be very busy.

When I check the BA site it comes up with at least one American Airlines indirect flight leaving LHR at 1250 to Miami and then connecting on to Orlando at 1940 arriving at 2055.

Hope that helps.

Yes sorry, should have said - leaving from London. Have you got that from searching London - Orlando, or putting it in a 2 separate flights? I am literally only getting options for about 6 different flights from London to Dublin which all connect to the same are local NGOs flight to Orlando. What am I doing wrong?! Argh!

I have had another look this morning and still get more than 6 including the one I mentioned earlier at 1250 to Miami with AA. I am doing my searches on a laptop don't know if you are using a mobile app - sorry I can't figure out why you aren't getting the extra flights. Good luck.

Had a look myself and most Thursdays are showing similar results to those you have found, i.e. no AA flights, just BA or AL ones, I even tried a random Thursday in March and it's the same. Plenty of options with AA on the 3rd and 5th but not the 4th.

Yet a search on AA website shows 40 different options for Thu 4th, very strange but I have no idea why. I have been looking on the full BA site on a pc and checked flight only and flight and car options.

I'm glad it's not just me! It's really bizarre that different people can get different options showing!
