actually it is not. In f it would 105,000 non stop one way versus 127500 via yvr....versus 75000 last year [ either way....and people wonder why those of us in na were pissed.

or added 67500 aa miles and even less taxes

I see your point but to be fair this is British airways not American airlines!!!!


Avios usage around America is still good value for quite a few redemptions on AA so it's not all doom and gloom as you make out
