Thanks in advance for your expert advice.

Using AA miles the most direct way would be AA to London and then BA onward. Are you trying to do Dubai and Kenya in the same trip? If so, you may want to look into the Oneworld awards. Do it ASAP prior to August 1 if you want to get the most bang for your buck, as the rules change after this to your disadvantage.

I suggest doing a little research in the Oneworld Award sticky threat at the top of the AA forum.

Cheers.
