Are these two flights the same?

Julez

Me and my girlfriend are booking tickets to the states, but she is not getting a return, trying to get the best price and fly together but, we have to each buy on different sites. Are these the same flight? I'm almost certain they are, same gate, same times everything, why two flight numbers though?

Probably Code Share arrangement like Aer Lingus and American Airlines ??

BA/AA have a joint venture across the Atlantic. Flights are the same plane but you could have difficulty getting seats beside each other as its two separate tickets. Check in as early as you can.

BA don't operate their own metal to anywhere other than London Heathrow from Dublin, so any other BA coded flight is on the other airlines metal.

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I was aloud choose my seats but she wasn't will have to hopefully get lucky at check in or hope that some nice individual might move for us. Anyway, thanks again.
