I take it that merely buying the ticket before 1.1.05 would be no insurance against these rule changes? To beat these 'rumblings' one would have to do the actual flying during 2004, right?
No - if you buy it before the rules change then those are the rules that apply. But if you have to do a reissue after the rules change then the new rules will apply. Note that changing the routing does NOT constitute a reissue, but changing the first international flight or any preceding flights does require a reissue.
