Okay, I get it now.

Now, I was planning on calling AA's ticketing desk to list us, so I hope that's sufficient. I'm not sure how to work idtravel.ba.com. It's asking me for info that I don't have.

If we decide to leave the airport, how early before the flight would you recommend we check ourselves in? Could we check in before we leave the airport so that when we get back we can just wait patiently for seats? Would there be a place to leave our check-in bags?

Thanks again.
