One rep said there was no award availability tickets to transfer to the BA 296 therefore I cannot change. When calling a second time, another rep said they will need to work with their liaison and she submitted a work order to get this flight changed. What’s the chances this actually happens?
I assume you were speaking to the American Airlines reps? You may be better asking in thier
forum.

However the Oneworld liaison desk does exist. Some member airlines are better than others at releasing availability in this circumstance, I’ve no idea about BA as would always be booking direct with them myself.
