London Airport Tip - Heathrow is Your Gateway to the US
All of this week's New York and Los Angeles deals operate out of London Heathrow (LHR). Virgin Atlantic and British Airways fly from Heathrow Terminal 3 and Terminal 5 respectively, while American Airlines uses Terminal 3. Heathrow is well connected via the Elizabeth line (Paddington in ~20 mins), the Heathrow Express (15 mins from Paddington), and the Piccadilly line if you're not in a rush. If you're considering booking on points, Smart With Points has excellent guides on using Avios to fly these exact routes - sometimes for a fraction of the cash price.
All the economy deals above are direct (non-stop) flights - always a bonus on an 8-11 hour journey. If you'd rather use miles than cash, Award Travel Finder tracks the best award seat availability and redemptions on these exact routes daily - well worth checking before you book.
