Yes I have. On the date in question there is literally no way to achieve such a routing. The ONLY way to go from BOS-LHR in the same day, on that particular day is on the BA flight. They no longer offer the AA metal flights from BOS-LHR and they cancelled the only possible routing through any other hub that they serve after agreeing to do so.

I also thought that the EU rules protected any passenger flying into or out of Europe regardless of the nationality of the carrier (happy to expose my ignorance on that particular rule)
