Yep, this:

Seems it successfully ticketed overnight, and looks like it's all DGLOB34, even including one Eco (B class) sector on BA.

It's BA, EI, AA, JL, and QR. Ticketed on AA stock, booked through Bookwithmatrix. And it came in cheaper than my Corp TA could price it, so I'm pretty pleased. I'm getting where I need to go, with a scenic detour to see some friends on my way home, and it's gives me 3x what the equivalent BA itinerary would give me in their new program.

It's a total ballache getting Matrix to price a DGLOB34, but with a bit of patience I got there. Also looks like MatrixPowertools wasn't able to push my booking into the AA flow, while Bookwithmatrix was - though it only supports the US AA site. So, if you're okay paying in USD and your bank isn't overzealous with fraud detection then this is viable I think.
