This policy was quoted earlier but as I recall believed to apply only to JL domestic segments.

Anyone else seeing this play out (either way) for international JL flights booked through US?
A friend of mine recently (2 weeks ago) booked JL SYD<->NRT on JL some 300+ days out - she also wanted to book JL onwards to Europe but the agent could not find availability so she settled for AY.
