Do consider via NYC for the STN Stansted flight. Are AA running this as one class, if so you only pay the regular rate of longhaul APD (£40/$80) rather than the premium rate (£80/$160).

Remember Maxjet, Silverjet and EOS do not pay the higher rate for this reason (as would have been the case for Concorde, were she still flying).

exMIA, you should also consider benchmarking the two daily direct 747 flights which likely have Video on Demand in seat TVs and free bar in all classes. The exUS Fare Sale launched yesterday, until September 27.

MIA-LON return is pricing up on BA in economy for $661 including taxes and fees, and you can pay $239 to upgrade that to World Traveller Plus each way. WT+ is now situated in a forward cabin between Club World and FIRST on many BA 747s.
