When I force Expertflyer to show the direct flight it is J0. Looking at individual segments A4, J7, C1.
If you are booked TUS-LHR as a single sector, then the individual segment availability is irrelevent, what is needed is through availability. It does not sound like there is any discrepency between EF and AA in this case
