A3 award tickets on both A3 and *A flights are changeable for a €20 fee by calling the call centre (and have been for about 3 months - the FAQ in the A3 forum that says no changes and half the miles are forfeit in the event of cancellation is out of date).

True, it's not the online FOC changes that you get as a BA gold, but, you can change or cancel up to half an hour before flight departure time, IMO that's pretty good and a lot better than a load of other airline programmes.
