Anything slightly creative to Sth America?
I can get a biz fare to GRU ex-AMS, on BA, for just under £2k. Fine.
But anyone come across ways of tweaking this to keep a similar price but route via the US? (or maybe intra Sth America?)
I can find some pure ex-US fares to GRU and rtn for around the £2.3k mark (including the rather delightful TPA-MIA-MCO-GRU ...), for 520 tps; but a £1.6k ex-EU to US + the £2.3k adds up to a somewhat inefficient £3.9k to GRU.

Anytime in a cheaper fare window, but August would be ideal.
INE5A6RS as posted above may be something I can look at, though 7293 miles looks a tad tough to overcome!
What routing would that allow? (AMS-LON-JFK-GRU ?)
ETA. Aha, yes JFK then MIA would be nicer ... as avoid MIA's into to US!

BA Tier Point runs | 2014 master thread
As this is a TP run thread, I have to ask how many TPs?

No luck so far.
Tried ex-AMS: coding aa LHR aa MIA aa GRU (and return) .... but waaaay over £4k trying calendar in Feb'15 and Aug'15.
So can't seem to land in a INE5A6R5 compliant fare to work from in ITA Matrix.
Examples?

Is this under £3/TP. I am sorry to sound blunt, but this is a TP run thread not a sale thread. There are other threads which are geared towards sales whether exUK or exEU.

Q: What's the best way to force matrix to give an airport transfer in LON on the inbound? LHR-LCY or LCY-LHR in this case:
I'm trying to price an itinerary (I7SALE) for DUB-PHL-SFO outbound (this would get preclearance at DUB, right?), then either SFO-JFK-LCY//LHR-DUB or SFO-LHR//LCY-DUB on the inbound...
... I have a feeling I might not manage to get to DUB a second time <cough>

I want to force the final leg, not the TATL.... (?) do I have to feed it a list of the LCY-DUB flight numbers?

If so, yes, list of flight numbers can work. Or click on timebars after results and see if your preference is there anyway.
