An unwelcome trend lately. (Bad news for SWUs too.) Unfortunately BA doesn't offer protection across separate reservations, so rolling the dice on an AA award ticket across the pond and a separate BA ticket from there is, well, rolling the dice. I doubt paying BA's surcharges and redemption rates across the pond for BA award ticket will be a sensible option either.
