Revisions to OW T&Cs

As published on cxagents. For me the most significant bit is the penultimate sentence - Alaska Airlines on Global Explorer makes that a lot more attractive for itineraries involving the US west coast and Alaska (especially in winter).

Code:

Please be advised that following changes to oneworld Fare Products with immediate effect :

Paragraph 9 – wording amended from 
'Unlimited free transfers permitted on the pricing unit fare break and 
 embedded surface sectors permitted on the fare component.    
 Note - subject to sector limitations.

 online/interline transfers permitted between   
 AA/AY/BA/CX/IB/JC/JL/JO/KA/LA/LP/MA/NU/QF/RJ/XL/4M.'
     
to 'Unlimited online/interline transfers permitted between AA/AY/BA/CX/IB/JC/JL/JO/KA/LA/LP/MA/NU/QF/RJ/XL/4M'  
 
Paragraph 15 additional wording
