You da man. Departing September 29th. They rebooked us on AA1870. I was thinking that we could just call and try to get on AA732 since that was close to our original itinerary anyway.

AA6183 would be awesome if we could pull it off. We actually got the flights for $860 back in March and have the nonstop coming home. Does the fact that it's operated by BA make a difference?

Just thought of this too, my fiancée and I are booked on separate itineraries. I figure that complicates things since we have to do it twice.

Good, I was right in my original guess that you'd be leaving on Friday . When calling in, first thing you should say is "I noticed mine and my fiancee's flights had a 2 hour schedule change on the way to London and I am wondering if we can be placed on the nonstop flight AA6183 departing new orleans at 9:05PM arriving London 11:45AM. We have two reservations that need to be changed." I'm not sure if AA6183 is possible just because it's operated by BA, but that would be my first request. Don't even mention that it's operated by BA and just see what they say. The British Airways flight is practically empty as well so that may help. If they say no, then go one of the options below.

AA1767 MSY 1:32 PM - PHL 5:19 PM
AA728 PHL 8:40 PM - LHR 9:00 AM

AA4620 MSY 1:55 PM - CLT 4:59 PM
AA730 CLT 6:55 PM - LHR 8:00 AM

AA1310 MSY 3:00 PM- ORD 5:41 PM
AA46 ORD 7:30 PM - LHR 9:05 AM (This is on a 787)

AA2358 MSY 3:57 PM - DFW 5:37 PM
AA78 DFW 7:20 PM - LHR 10:25 AM (This is a 77W)

AA732 MSY 4:14 PM - CLT 7:11 PM
AA732 CLT 10:05 PM - LHR 11:05 AM

I think the chicago, philly or dallas flights look pretty good. When they reschedule you, make sure you ask for two seats together as a courtesy of this schedule change. They can assign you two seats that would only be available at a cost if you went into your reservation online

Schedule changes are the best. You can move your flights to something that suits your itinerary better (non-stop, extra day, better connection airport, better times, etc.)

And airlines will do this without applying change fees or fare differences as a courtesy.
