Actually, unless you added "UK" after London, IMO it should be able to
find some London in North America, like for example in Ontario,
Canada, not too far from NYC:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=nyc+to+london,on&sll=40.947512,-73.656991&sspn=0.766526,1.399384&ie=UTF8&z=7

... or at least it should offer options.
