Avios Points

Hello Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong place but couldnt find it anywhere else.
I need advice from an Avios points collector. I have recently got a BA credit card which I have a DD to pay off in full every month. The reason I got one is because I just do normal day to day spending on my credit card and thought this would be a good way to collect points for a trip to NY next year. When I applied for the card I checked how many avios I would need for 1 single flight to New York and it says 20,000 on their website. However, I have seen on other adverts recently that 20,000 is just a flight to Rome....very confused....anyone help??
cheers

Rome is Zone 2, 15000 Avios (7500 each way)
New York is Zone 5, 40000 Avios (20000 each way)Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the endQuidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur0 -
