BCN-NCE=104 on British Airways with a stop in London
NCE-FCO=210 on British Airways with a stop in London
FCO-LHR (to get to Heathrow for our flight back to LA)=240 on British Airways
So about 850 for the airfare. Seems expensive, but it looks like most of the LCC's fly out of weird airports that are out of the way.
Thanks for the input!
Flying everywhere via LON on BA does seem a little ... well, mad (unless you really want the miles!!!).
Some LCC fly to weird airports (with Ryanair the most notorious) but many don't. Try
www.skyscanner.net as another tool for finding routes and prices, it includes most LCC in Europe. I'm sure you could save some time and money.
