Use EU as origin for RT mileage runs? How to RT 6+month?

I was wondering how feasible it is to use AA miles during down season for 1 way to EU and then do a return. I notice EU origin makes the tickets 30%-50% cheaper. Going through BA connects to AA and then both are collect miles for advantage.

Also, is there a way to book longer tickets? A EU friend of mine studying in the US said she used to book tickets to US before in Sept and then return in Dec. It seems now the max is 2 months on Google Flight, Momondo, BA, etc.

Extremely feasible. Start in Scandinavia, do an open jaw and get it even cheaper.

Incorrect, just give it time to load prices.
