From US-LHR it's $510 in economy, $810 in premium economy, $1300 in Upper Class. For Y & Y+ I don't think it's worth it, but I'd definitely pay that for a UC seat.

Well the big kicker is really the UK exit fee. Depending on your home airport, it CAN be a great deal. One way from LAX-LHR for example is only $135 in coach. I've found 5 coach seats on every non-stop flight out of LAX during summer, which is next to impossible to find on any other airline, plus at 21K miles for the flight (vs 30K for most other programs), I personally think it is a good value out of LAX for summer travel.

Also a note on fees, they reduced the UK exit fee for kids. I got a decent refund on my flights next summer, not sure if it is for business or not.
