Trying to avoid BA taxes
1) Business class award space not on BA between Europe and the US is tough to find in peak season unless you book really far out (10-11 months) or really close in (within a month to a few days).
2) AA doesn't fly to Naples, Italy, so searching from NAP will automatically limit your options to connecting through LHR or MAD. Search all other AA gateways (MXP, FCO, ZRH, FRA, etc.), if you find something buy a separate ticket from NAP to there.
3) Take a read through the dedicated threads below...
