That's great for nonstop or "direct" flights on AA. But since BA charges separately for each flight flown, BA Avios are not so good for connections. Iberia Plus Avios, however, can be very good for connections where the total roundtrip flight distance is under 2,000 flown miles. But Iberia Plus redemptions on AA are completely non-changeable/non-refundable.
