IAD or DCA - VIE?
I've got 80k AA miles and need to get a round trip to from DC to Vienna departing on Aug 10 returning Aug 16. I assume my best option is BA? Can I get a Business class ticket for 80k or am I stuck in coach?

Probably a better question for the AA forum but accordingly to the aa.com all partner award chart you could do coach one direction and business the other.

You will be flying from IAD unless your TATL originates in Canada in which case there is connecting service from DCA.

If you don't mind departing from NYC, you can do a one-world award JFK-LHR-VIE-MAD-JFK which is 8958 flight miles and would cost only 80K AA miles and it is an all business class award.
