BA could start to say right TP are from start to finish not per sector or they could close executive club account with a forfeit of status and Avios for what they perceive to be fraud,
Ive only done one ex EU and flown all the sectors in order, Clearly the airlines are aware of such practises an it doesn’t yet bother them but take the mickey enough and it will become an item on the agenda.
Be careful when using the word Fraud. First of all, now the CoC terms have been found invalid, there is no question any more of this even being breach of contract. Secondly, the airlines choose to make tickets on indirect routings cheaper than direct. Taking advantage of that is neither fraudulent nor immoral. Thirdly, not taking a final sector of a journey will save the airline fuel you have paid for flying an empty seat you gave paid for. Failure to use what you have purchased is no reason to retrospectively change the price at which an airline was earlier prepared to sell you transportation. If airlines could sell all the seats to point-to-point passengers for inflated prices they would do so. They sell indirect routings cheaper to fill their aircraft.
