I found AA's earnings on BA's new earnings scale could be hard to predict on such occasions; probably this could also happen to BA/IB coded and operating flights as well. Might still avoid BA/AA/IB flights as much as i could in furture RTW ticket even its issued by non-BA/AA/IB
Many thanks - this is useful. I think the key thing here is still visibility of fare by issuing airline, so hopefully I should be good with a few more segments on AA/BA on my current RTW. I'm seriously considering switching to AY after requalifying as it seems more predictable.
