    QFF Award CX flight confirmed and then wait listed, what are my next steps?

    Call again and confirm if they sent the reinstatement request or send another one if necessary. When I called them on 24/02, the lady told me she will send the request after this call but actually, she didn't, just lied to me and I found out 48 hour later and asked them to do that again.
