But you are not married to BA. Go and pick one of the alternatives: If you want avios, across the Atlantic AA is pretty good, eastbound QR/CX are decent. If you don't care about them points, there are other fantastic airlines (I love SQ) who are frequently cheaper, frequently better, and frequently more frequent.
