No, I was just asking if your itinerary was nonstop (a-b or a-b-a) or connecting (a-b-c or a-b-c-b-a). The reason being that as mentioned, on BA shorthaul, only plus fares booked under the previous rule could be changed at no fee and plus fares are only available on nonstop flights.
Conversely, I knew for certain you wouldn't be on a long haul itinerary because no London long haul O fare offers few free changes, and any change would always cost you several hundreds euros.
