Second this advice, but with the caveat that some inter-regional flights can be quite expensive and/or other modes less than reliable so it really pays to do your homework when deciding which legs to include.

That's why I would recommend BA Avios as a great supplementary program for a RTW itinerary where you use your destinations as a gateway to the region at large.

Pivoting from one airport to the next until you finish your round the region trip back at your departure airport.

All while only using BA Avios Points and in the exact way that they are made for.

This is a very good idea.

And to supplement my earlier post, I should say that the usefulness of my advice depends largely on how you like to travel. My advice works best if you are either willing to (a) spend money (or use Avios points) on short flights within a region, or (b) sit in boats, buses, trains and cars for potentially long and uncomfortable journeys. I happen to find (b) a valuable and enjoyable element of travel, but I recognize not everyone does.
