They could ask you to pay point to point for each of the segments flown as you have not complied with the ticket conditions. But I have not seen any post on FT where that has been done.
Oh, I thought because of Oneworld Explorer Fares (RWR2 RULE 3015), I had a chance to get something back:

"16 b 3) For partially used transportation the refund if any will be the difference between the fare paid and the fare for the transportation used less the fee specified in (1) (which is 10% for Economy) above."

My problem is, I really can't fly at the date of my last and 16th segment. I booked it for the last possible date with the plan to change the date. But now the carrier AB does not offer flights anymore on this route in the time I wanted to fly. There is an indiect option, but this would increase the number of segments to 17 - so it's not possible?

Another question I have is: If I change the routing from AAA-BBB-CCC to AAA-DDD-EEE, does it count as one transaction or as two (so 125 USD change fee or 250 USD change fee?

And is a change fee per person or per booking-number (we are two people on one booking)?

So many questions. Tried to get answers from AA, but they weren't very helpful. Hope you are. Thanks!
