Good idea below as saver award availability from NYC to CDG on ua.com appears to be far less than to LHR. OP can travel cheaply between LHR-CDG using BA miles (transfer from MR to BA). I checked ba.com and it shows LHR-CDG each way costs only 4.5K Avios points plus $20. [ETA] Notice the award type from ba.com says "Reward Flight Saver", i.e., no taxes/fees, not sure if this is a promotion or not.

Another consideration is to check flights from/to PHL for travel on ua miles. Its a relatively easy commute between NYC-PHL.
