So, got to reservations and price your flight. You will see what the fees and the actual fare (what you get with the miles) on the booking page.
US-UK are around $565 for Club World, Economy is a little less.
Thanks for the tip. I just checked BOS-NBO and the fees came out to $591.70 on an $835 fare.
If I wanted to go to Kenya on BA miles, I think I'd look into flying to JNB on IB or else trade for miles that could get me there for a smaller cash outlay (DL maybe?).
ETA: I just checked nwa.com for the same routing and their "low" price is 80k miles plus $112.20 in fees.
