TP run in june/july

Hi all,

been a reader here for many years but never signed up. I am very impressed by people doing Tier Point runs.

I need to go to NY and San francisco in June. I currently hold Blue on BA and accumulated 380 TPs so far. My membership runs out ont he 8th August so my question is, has anyone got any TP run that I could incorporate into my trip to NY and San Fran? My company only pays for economy but I sometimes get away with Prem Econ.

I need to do the following leg:
London -> NY
NY -> SF
SF->LON

are there any tricks in booking maybe on AA or going via somewhere else?

Any recommendation will be appreciated.

From the subject, I thought the OP was looking to fly on TAP Air Portugal.

also, rumor has it that a train/flight to another city & fly thru lhr on the outbound saves on departure tax & gets another segment....
