I'm thinking of using BA miles for an Alaskan trip from the "Lower 48." And since I've been to Alaska before, I'm thinking of a "creative" trip -- fully taking advantage of BA's unlimited stopover rule. Other than availability, would there be anything stoping me from flying to Seattle, hopscotching southeast Alaska, stopping in Anchorage, and winding up in Nome? It would be pretty much a "straight line" from Seattle to Nome. And I'm assuming a one-way trip from the Lower 48 to Alaska would only be 12,500 miles.

I'd obviously want to sketch out an itinerary before I called BA rez. When I use AA miles to fly Alaska, I go to the Alaskaair.com website and check award availabiity. If the lowest tier is available on that site, it is available from AA. Would the same thing be true for BA?

Thanks for any suggestions.
