I would have thought that any date after August 30th wouldn't have been too bad considering Summer Holidays end that week in the UK? So I'm quite shocked to hear this, especially since you can't book until 331 days in advanced, so can't imagine really they are at capacity in this regard?
You can't book the connecting AA or DL flights more than 331 days in advance; you can certainly book the trans-Atlantic flights on BA/VS into early October right now.

Would you consider flying into MIA, and driving to EYW -- or just booking the MIA-EYW flight later?
