We are talking here about a OW award using AA miles not an AA partner award
If you look at Section 2 of the sticky on this (OW) board you will see that it specifically states NONSTOP BA flights from the US to the UK are not allowed
As I do not know of any BA flights from the US that stop on the way to LHR in the Atlantic Ocean, then the resulting logic must be that NO flights on BA are allowed, which is not logical as they would have said that, or connecting flights ARE allowed through the first gateway in the UK (LHR in this case) as there are no direct flights to anywhere in the UK direct from the US except LHR or MAN
