Changes to DONE ex CAI

I've got 3 segments left on a DONE, scheduled to end in CAI. Can I opt for Alexandria as an alternate end port? I seem to remember the fare rules stating only 'country of origin' as the requirement ie Egypt.

That said, I notice that the BA flights to HBE are operated by British Mediterranean, using a BA designator. Any ideas on whether this is a valid flight for OWE purposes?

Would also appreciate any first-hand experience on what these flights are like - I'm assuming it's something akin to the BA Club Europe product.

Haven't been on the flights so I can't comment on Brit Med.
