Whats the best route across the Atlantic west to east?
As a veteran of one east to west crossing via the trade winds, the best west to east routes are to the north, US - Bermuda - Azores - Europe. You have the benefit of the westerly winds and the Atlantic high. July is late to leave for a west to east crossing, the risk of hurricanes is increasing. Get yourself J Cornell's "World Cruising Routes." Best of Sailing!

What is the distance from London to Antigua?
Of course it depends where in UK, and by what route you travel. The 'common' sailing route is to Portsmouth with a brief stop in Azores (for example Horta). Using this route, I calculate the shortest possible sailing route to be 3550 nm (or 6590 km). If you just want to know the shortest straight line distance then it is 3330 nm (6160 km) from St John's, Antigua to Lands End, UK. (I excluded any of the UK islands since the calculation becomes quite complicated!).
What was the route of 'Mary Celeste'?
Transatlantic and transmediterranean courses are parts of the projected route of the half brig Mary Celeste. Shipping routes from New York to the eastern Atlantic Ocean's entry into the Mediterranean tend to round the Azores off the insular group's southern shores. But a rounding off the archipelago's northern shores turned out to be the course preserved in the charts found on the abandoned, derelict Mary Celeste yawing halfway between the Azores and Portugal in 1872.
