Hi,

Welcome to flyertalk!

I would talk to whoever issued your ticket as if you simply cancel the first segement and do not show up in BCN the whole itineray may be cancelled. You may be able to change your ticket to start from London ( but even if it is possible it may be costly to do so.)

Is this part of a return ticket ( ie USA-BCN -LON-USA) or just a one way ticket?

Cancelling part of the ticket is likely to be expensive and you may have two options;

(1) get a cheap LON-BCN on a low cost carrier such as Easyjet ( but BA/IB may have cheap fares) ticket to start the return leg

(2) swallow the cost of the ticket purchased and get a cheap one way LON-USA ticket.

I would take to your ticket issuer in the first instance about the change costs ( if possible)

Regards and good luck

TBS
