You can also voip call them directly from their website and ask for someone who speaks English - I had reasonable responses from their call center folks.
Those are the questions so experience with someone who has flown from OVB would be useful. If this was solely S7, then I know it would be by S7 rules. If flying S7 to DME, then BA to LHR, logically S7 would be the MSC, as it is involved in flying from zone 3 to zone 2 and BA is only flying within zone 2. I am confused about transit from zone 3 to zone 2 to zone 1.
