I'm looking for a one way ticket in J class without YQ from Europe to NYC in the summer, What would be my best option?

Preferably Lie flat

Thanks!
See, but now you left out OneWorld. Which means *even* I have an answer for you. LX and LH both have lie-flat in J and F.

Thank you!

Just out of curiosity is there any way to get from Europe to NYC on Skyteam without heavy YQ (besides for DL)

Thanks

No. Was answering the general question.

With AA, maybe fly to Asia first and then back to NY :)

Noticed something interesting....

If I search for a flight from LHR-NYC on BA with AA miles the YQ is almost $530!

But if I search from another place in Europe, lets say VCE-NYC and that stops in LHR and you get on the same BA flight, the YQ drops to around $150 for all the flights combined

I searched all for F savor award

Why is that??

That's also charged with a stopover,
It's the yq that goes down if you don't leave ex-lhr.

hmmm so Im thinking there has to be some sweet spot to leave Europe where the YQ is the minimalist and you can still take BA F to the US

It's not charged on a connection that's less than 24hrs.

Try lhr-vce-Nyc
That should be better,from lhr to Europe they don't charge heavy fuel.
