New York to London. Via Los Angeles

Interesting in a weekend getaway to London?  Wanna more than double the number of miles you travel to get there?

There’s a “sale” of sorts on right now for flights between New York City and London that isn’t all that phenomenal, especially for travel only into mid-March.  Seriously, a $650 fare is nothing to write home about normally.  But this one is somewhat unique in that a permissible routing is via Los Angeles, California.  That more than doubles the miles involved (and roughly triples the travel time) making it a somewhat better value for folks looking to accrue miles. 

The fare requires a Saturday night stay and expires March 15th.  The timing of the flights via LAX mean that there is a forced overnight in London. Happy trails!
