That is exactly what you are expecting - that the fare rules be overridden
If it was a full fareJ ticket as indicated , I cannot see why there would have been any fare difference - to get away earlier, with such a fare, you should have been simply able to cancel , get refund for the inbound flight and rebook on another carrier
Looking at fares on EF, it does seem that the JFK-LHR J fare is around GBP11,000
