Not sure why you can't price that but be careful about going through JFK because it means J on a 3 class 762 to LAX so fewer TP's than in F from, say, MIA. Routing through MIA definitely priced yesterday because I have an aa.com itinerary on hold.

you can go via JFK if you go JFK-LAS-LAX for the higher TPs.

I think the current fare rules exclude BA1-4 so if you're putting in LCY-JFK that will be more pricey.

Note that at least two MIA-LAX flights are on 3 class planes. Another option that just opened up is BRU-LHR-RDU-LAX-HNL. AA runs a 767 LHR-RDU and just started up RDU-LAX.

BA1 is pricing up on dates I am looking at. It just requires an overnight in London.
It comes up fine on BRU-LHR//LCY-JFK-LAX-HNL for an outbound.
There is just a limitation on the dates when BA1 is available.

If I don't, then I think the RDU 763 is looking like a good option.

AY will have to do better than that to tempt me back onto one of their planes for a 12 hour flight.
Repeat their EU-SYD for £1600 fares and I'd consider it, but when you can often pick up LHR-BKK on EY for £1600, and that includes the limo transfers from my house to LHR and back again, I'm more than happy to give up the TPs and fly in comfort!
