* Don't make a habit of doing this or you'll also get into trouble with BA.
I've heard airlines frown at skipping a leg but I may have to try that if that saves me 1600. Do I just tell the staff at IAH to check my bags to London? Also when you say book direct, is this booking on BA or with AA for all of the flights?
Thanks
