If you book it as an AA code then the fuel fines are much lower. If you book OSL-LHR on BA and then LHR-LAX as an AA code on BA or AA metal, the fuel fines are still low. Given the choice of AA or BA metal in business class, I'd pick AA as they have much better seats. But BA has better food and drink and service.

You can touch an airport as much as you like, but you can only fly between the same cities in the same direction once. I thought you only have 15 segments but I might have miscounted with the surface segments.
