If the former, you should be OK: if they agreed to sell it to you, then I would expect them to take responsibility in case of misconnect.
If the latter, I would be somewhat concerned that AA and BA might refuse to rebook in case of misconnect on the ground that it was below MCT and, as such, AYOR.
I put these segments together as part of an award ticket. And I just received an email from AA asking to call them. I tweeted AA and they said yes I need to call—the agent shouldn’t have booked that per your email indicates.
I will switch to the next flight.
That being said can I standby for that 11:40 if I make it? I’m AA EXP so emerald. I think I can standby for free.
Thanks!
