Hi there - I am looking to book a single LAX-ALG via LHR on AA/BA, but want to end the journey at LHR as it's a good fare in business. As a UK national, I require an Algerian visa to visit but don't have one - will cause me to be denied boarding the flight at LAX? If I book them as two segments on the same booking LAX-LHR then LGW-ALG - (less than 24hrs apart though) instead of LAX-ALG - would this avoid the problem?

Grateful for any advice. Thanks,
