Yes, with the new voucher you can start anywhere in the world and it seems it’s now bookable online too. However, if the stopover in London is more than 24hrs then extra surcharges kick in.

Tokyo-JFK-Tokyo via London is 250k Avios + £2188 if long stopover or 250k Avios + £1393 if less than 24hr with 241 voucher.

So effectively if you want two trips on 1 voucher that will cost you an approx. an extra £800 or £400 per person.

I haven’t checked out how it would work out on say Japan-Brazil return.

Hey Meta, I’m trying to find a list of routes where a stopover in London is possible to create essentially 2x trips out of a single 241. Is there a reason why we have to do TYO > JFK via LHR and not able to do it the other way round? (JFK > TYO via LHR)?

Also it seems like new york is the only US city that this is possible from after checking a bunch of west coast cities. Is there specific conditions I need to lookout for to determine whether a pair of cities are feasible to route via LHR for a longer than 24 hour stopover?
