I do wonder, though, whether RJ joining OneWorld might have put a spanner in the works for any such AA/LY codeshare -- let's hope they don't view NYC-AMM-TLV as a good-enough substitute for NYC-LHR-TLV or some other more direct route on larger planes with better connections.
Why is a code share needed. The last time I asked if I flew AA US to LHR and BA LHR-TLV Id get all Bonuses for class etc. The only thing one cant do is fly BA between the US and LHR.
