Hi, and thanks for taking the time to answer. I'm flying out of NYC and not interested in stopping anywhere in the states. I have surface travel from Amsterdam to London so the schedule is good (e.g. oneworld can price it). I'm not a participant in any ff programs.

From my planned booking, it looks like airlines are:

Qantas
Malaysia Airlines
Qatar Airways
British Airways
S7
Finnair
Iberia
American Airlines

Unsure what type of tweaking (other than starting point or FF) are available with OW that could help with pricing. Thanks again.
