OWE requires 10 days minimum travel precisely to prevent use for this purpose (when issued in area 1). You were either very lucky and got away with a major breach of the rules, or it wasn't a OWE ticket that you were using.

That's true. They waved the rule for me. They tend to be a lot more forgiving to their Executive Platinum members flying on J class tickets. They allowed a change to my first international flight this week also (moved back by 1 day). That's definitly against the written rules.
