I'm curious if anyone has tried it, although I'm not sure if it would be of benefit to anyone outside the DC area...
I don't see why it wouldn't be open to miles bookings. I don't know if you could do IAD-[EI]-MAD-[BA]-LHR. I suppose someone with some free time and free 0845 calls should phone up and ask.
