It is a cancellation as far as the marketing carrier is concerned

It is one of the myriad of reasons for avoiding codeshares unless there is a good reason imo

What AA does is irrevelent since that is another carrier

With a BA flight number, then it is a BA flight - being in the US if it is the 1st flight in the itinerary then it is also BA's baggage allowances and policies which apply
