   3. Flights operated by OpenSkies. 
3. Return flights must originate and terminate in the same country.  Point-to-point flights are those with the same BA flight number for the whole outbound or inbound journey.  Flights on Sun-Air of Scandinavia, codeshare and alliance airlines, and any journey where the booking is made up of two or more carriers are not eligible for the PPR. The operating airline is stated on the choose your flights page on ba.com, in the column labelled ‘Flight Operator’.

5. The fare (including all taxes, fees and charges) plus  any associated booking and card payment fees must be cheaper than the flight purchased through ba.com and must be for the same route, with each leg of the trip flown in the same order, for the same dates, for the same flight numbers, in the same class of travel, for the same type of ticket (including fare conditions such as whether tickets are/are not flexible, refundable or changeable and the cost of making such changes) and be sold over the internet in your country of departure, in the currency of the departure country, on the same calendar day (based on the local time of departure country) you purchased your ticket on ba.com (the “Lower Online Fare”).
