Flying above the NATS

I posted a similar thing about flying under them, but I want to know if it's the same concept for flying over them as well. I'm planning to fly a Phenom 300 from Boston to Shannon on Saturday during an event, and the best cruising altitude for the aircraft is at FL410. The NATS only go up to FL390. Could I still file the NAT, and get clearance to fly the NAT? Or could I file the NAT route and just mention all my co-ordinates without actually saying the NAT designator to clearance?

 

I apologise if that made no sense,

Thanks in advance,

Jacob.

If you want to fly it at an altitude it’s not published at, it’ll be a random route. You’ll want to file every waypoint on it in that case.
