Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights to Europe from the U.S. during the low season months of January or February, specifically for routes like New York (JFK) to London (LHR), as availability tends to be higher and demand lower during this period.
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 30,000 British Airways Avios for a one-way flight from New York (JFK) to Boston (BOS), which typically costs around $150 in cash.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to London (LHR) via Madrid (MAD) to take advantage of the Oneworld Explorer fare, which allows you to visit both cities and adds only about 1,100 miles while saving you 5,000 miles compared to a direct booking.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid booking flights on British Airways for transatlantic routes as they often impose high fees, such as fuel surcharges that can exceed $1,000 round trip.
