Good idea about saving the itins on OW site. I will try that. Currently I save them on my desktop; and other times on laptop when away.
Yes. I was putting together a routing using the OW tool and realised that when I selected the AY codeshare on the ARN-LHR sector the taxes portion of the quote almost halved.

I did not get a price from AA as it seemed there would be little more, if any benefit from doing so.

I went ahead and purchased online and it was ticketed 3 days later by AY in HEL using the SEK price quoted by the tool.

I did note the other day that AY have since instigated a service fee of 50SEK (IIRC) which now shows on the OW tool quote page.
