The whole point is that travel plans change and when I already have an LHR-JFK, which may well have been purchased by a customer, I don't want them to pay a change fee as well as having a new ticket issued because I decided to link up with the return from a different customer in MUC.

The marketing of OneWorld wants you to believe that staying on-alliance is advantageous, when in this case the reverse is true.

It is IMHO the removal of yet another standard feature of full-service carriers in their misguided attempt to descend to the service levels of LCC's.
