If, on the return, you spend more than 24 hours in London, you'll be hit with the high UK APD on your departing flight back to the U.S. If you need to spend more than 24 hours at a time in London, do it on the outbound, since you would thereafter be departing London on a short, intra-European flight, or on a train to Paris.

Will you be using a BA 2-4-1 certificate on this trip? If so, you might be entitled to include BA connecting flights on the certificate, and also have an open jaw. Have you checked with BAEC?
Yes, ill be using 2-4-1 and just booked the ticket today sfo to lhr. I tried to book sfo- lhr- cdg as connecting flight but it came back as an extra 1000 miles but 325 in taxes and surcharge extra.

I didnt know i was entitled to an a free cinnecting flight. My total charge was 150k miles and $2450 in taxes and surcharge for 2 in F.

I didnt hink i could open jaw it since i though i had to depart from the same airport! I think all ba flights to sfo route through
Lhr right?

I think i have 24 hrs to cancel and rebook for any reason.
