@masaccio, you can only use the Barclays voucher on a flight departing from the U.K., so you may need to rethink the NYC plan!
We’ve also used a voucher for Athens to upgrade OH to CE while I’m on a double TP-earning BA holiday – cash fare would have been over £600, as you say.
D’oh! Of course. Regular Avios it is then. I’m one paying one-way CW fares.
