DH and I live in Chicago. We want to visit his old boss in London for 4-5 days and then go to our fave B & B in Provence for another 5 days. So I guess our two European airports would be LGW or LHR, and NCE. I have no required time frame for this trip, just sometime in 2008 and not in July or August (too hot).

Any creative ideas on how to do as a OW80 trip? Trying to brainstorm here and I can't seem to come up with anything that uses AA overseas both ways and then also incorporates two other airlines. Stopping over in another city is not a problem; that would be kinda neat if we "had" to stay in say, Barcelona for one night, if it fits within the stopover time limit and stays within the 9000 miles required for a OW80.

I figured genius flyertalkers could come up with something.

Thanks!
Jennifer
