Thanks for the response both Pandaperth and Zoombee. I THINK (hope) that pandaperth is correct. The routing I am looking at is 3.2.2 - the restrictions seem to come into play when the flight to or from Africa involves BA on their London flight (at least when starting in South Africa). It seems through the rules if you use QR on both legs to and from Africa that there are no restrictions on the intra-Europe flights (other than BA's restriction of no more than 2 east/west flights). The term Europe / Middle East in the above rules, as far as I understand, refer only to the arrival and departure flight - for all flying within "Europe" the rules are then the same as for any other ticket.
