Would you share the date you are seeing a 65K economy award on BA? I haven't seen a Y award on BA NA-EU over 50K. Fees and taxes should be ~$310 on a Y award redemption.

Nonetheless, BA redemptions are extremely poor value NA-EU. An AA award would be 22.5K non-peak & 30K peak with minimal taxes. Alternatively, AS will market AAs flight close to the fees & taxes of the BA award and you would earn 100% EQN in Mileage Plan.
