Thanks for the tips guys. Just another question, can AA still issue the ticket if they are not the carrier on the first segment? (I am planning to use BA ARN-LHR). In Asia and Australia/New Zealand they insist that the ticket has to be issued by the first carrier. I'm not 100% convinced that it should really be that way but every owe I have purchased in Asia has followed that rule.</font>
My ticket was 24 segments, handwritten by AA office in Stockholm and my first leg was by BA. The only care I took was to warn the Sweden ticketing desk to keep my tickets ready for pick up giving my credit card number. I landed in Stockholm at 11 AM and was off by the BA flight at 1225.
Good luck
