OP, hate to disappoint you but both BA and US are not good options for you. Award tickets are valid for one year and so you cannot use US miles to book a flight. You could spend miles for a RT and just take a one-way, but you would be paying double.

BA is notorious for fuel surcharges (YQ). The savings when flying economy is very little. BA miles are great for use on domestic AA and AS flight and all LA fights.

The best miles for you were UA & AA as they both have one-way awards and options without YQ.
