3- Is my only alternative buying a completely new ticket, or is there another possibility I may have missed? Should I wait until Boxing Day for the next World Offers or book now?

4- If I cancel this ticket, can I get a refund on airport taxes? On some of the website I visited, they say it is possible, while on others it is not possible on the cheapest economy tickets.
Have you tried to change the outbound?

1. I don't think it means that only the inbound is changeable. The fare rules for a dummy booking I just did on ba.com for the same itinerary and same V fare bucket say that if you change the outbound and the first fare component is changed then the whole fare has to be re-priced and a new ticket issued.

2. Pass

3. Not necessarily, see answer to 1.

4. Yes.
