Ach well, thanks for the input folks.
Don't mean to rub salt in the wound, but I just booked the following award through AC for $53 in taxes and 120,000 miles.

PHX-SEA: US F
SEA-FRA: LH F
FRA-AMS: LH C
AMS-ZRH: LX C
ZRH-BKK: LX F
BKK-SIN: SQ C
SIN-LAX: SQ F
LAX-PHX: US F

£357 for FWA - ORD - LHR - EDI vv. is obscene.
