While I hate when people call the airline, over at OMAAT, one poster named trex stated...
"Just got off the phone with BA….she tried to get me the fare, but after confirming with the manager she said it had expired. She did say though that it was a valid an intentional fare and that they booked two people over the phone and they should go through without a problem."
(Italic/Red mine)
Take it for what it is worth. Hopefully a positive "data" point.

It would be great news for sure, but I'm not holding my breath.

I spoke to some AA flight attendant friends. One of them is based in MIA and does this route a lot and said it’s one of the least favorite routes because passengers are very rude, and the city isn’t very safe. Also, the best hotel is that Courtyard by Marriott for those interested. Frankly, I’m just planning on staying inside my hotel mostly. However, she did also say Ecuador sells any medication you want OTC.

Just heard from a generally reliable source this was meant to be a special fare for 787 routes (which I actually jokingly mentioned)- turns out to be potentially true. From their indication honored may be a legitimate possibility. Fingers crossed for all!
