More of a question for ---> Oneworld booking and pricing experiences

As above replace LON with LHR - LGW.
Not a very adventurous route. Flying BA will mean many surcharges. With 3 LHR departures/stop over will have a lot of UK APD.
A map from the Great Circle Mapper - Great Circle Mapper

HNL-HND non stop is flown by HA & JL. HNL-NRT by JL. HA brand, while owned by AS (oneword airline) is not an allowable airline. So need to go back to mainland USA, unless fly JL. HA brand is expected to join oneworld March 2026.
However when you buy a *ONE* the rules are locked in. That includes only the allowable airlines at that time. Cannot add/change to "new" airlines.

AA & AS (SABRE GDS) limit to booking flights 330 days out. AS is showing 18 Nov 2026 as latest for booking. Other airlines (Amadues) are about 365 days out.
