I got it to work with AARP, 30K paid with Avios, and paid with Mastercard. 10% discount will not stack, as previously noted. Took a couple tries to get AARP going but worked out in the end.
$1600 roundtrip for EWR-LHR-VIE // WAW-LHR-EWR. Those intra-Europe flights added up, and buying cheaper Economy tickets for the short-hauls would have made things cheaper (the actual EWR-LHR-EWR was only $1200 post-AARP), but too much of a pain. Throw in 30K Avios and that's $836. |
Hi everyone, I know this thread is blowing up but was hoping for some insight on connections. Thinking of purchasing this as a MR as I was able to find a RT for $448 from LAX-LHR. For those who have been to LHR, would 3 hours be enough time to transit to my return flight at LHR?

Thanks to the OP. I booked LAX-LHR for 7/29 until 8/10 for $1216 on AA metal (with BA flight numbers), in business class.
Note i used the AARP discount but don't have the BA Chase card which would have brought the price under $1100 !!! A |
How do you get the BA website to knock off more than 7500 avios? I can only get it to take off $75.

That's my theory based on ICT-DFW-LHR-DFW-ICT not working, but DFW-LHR-DFW-ICT working. ETA: See below. Theory is wrong. |
We are delighted to be able to offer these Avios part payment savings from both London Heathrow and City to the below selected destinations: Abu Dhabi, Bahrain, Bangkok, Beijing, Bengaluru, Chengdu Shuangliu, Chicago, Dallas - Forth Worth, Delhi Indira Ghandi International, Dubai, Hong Kong, Houston, Hyderabad, JFK, Kuala Lumpur International, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Montreal, Mumbai, Newark, Philadelphia International, San Francisco International, Seoul, Shanghai Pudong, Singapore Changi, Toronto, Vancouver, Washington. |
Thanks, work2fly! So it looks like you must *originate* (or terminate?) in one of those cities.

It only gives me choice of economy now. Strange.

Thanks to the OP and everyone else who posts in this forum. I've been checking here every day for a couple months since I have to go to a seminar in the UK over Thanksgiving and decided to make a trip out of it. Thanks to you folks, I got nonstop LAX-LHR for $1213! :)
