I was trying to search on Ba for reward space as a dummy booking to see if it’s doable and at what cost. I have well over a million Avios, but all I get is flights from or through LHR
1) can you fly JAL to Tokyo from North America using Avios (I thought it was yes) assuming space
2) how hard is space to find in First JAL (I assume very but not impossible)
3) do I need to call BA executive club to sort it if they can help
