Even if you fly AA TATL, but tack on a BA-served short-hop, that's going to add $50 for a non-AA destination RT Award ticket in Europe. Does anyone know if this fee will also trigger additional taxes?
Also, does anyone know if a sector is the same as a flight segment or includes all connecting flights? (i.e., if you fly into BRU, then hop through LHR to OSL, would you pay $50 each way ($25 BRU-LHR + $25 LHR-OSL) OR would you pay $25 total for BRU-LHR-OSL?).
I'm assuming these "fuel charges" will also apply to BA flights on OneWorld Awards. If so, this will drastically increase the net cost of a OW Award containing multiple BA flights.
Very dissappointing changes from AA that the TATL BA miles earning doesn't begin to compensate for.
