Cancelling an Asia Miles reward on BA metal?

Greetings from the Great White North.

I am considering joining Asia Miles, as I have a bunch of Amex MR points burning a hole in my pocket (and AC isn't that attractive option at the moment).

One of the reasons for liking Asia Miles is that you can book a J reward (YYZ-LHR) on BA metal for 60K points. The same reward flight booked through the BA Exec Club is 100K points.

However, one of the things I can't seem to find out is what happens if I had to cancel such a reward (ie one booked through Asia Miles). The web site seems to indicate that you don't get the points back if you cancel, but I may not have read that section correctly. If you book a BA reward flight through the BA Exec Club then you can cancel up to 24hrs before the flight and get your points back for a C$50 charge.

Can anyone shed any light on what happens if you have to cancel an Asia Miles reward flight that is booked on BA metal?

TIA.
