Just to loop back around to this one, tpor5488 / ellen10 , I'm guessing neither of you had any issues as far as the allotted baggage via a reward booking? I'm looking at something similar from TLS - what is it about southern France for BA reward redemptions, ha - albeit in business. Admittedly...

Are there any implications as far as credit checks/history, etc when your account is technically cancelled and then reinstated in the one call?

Can't guarantee it is still the same, but in my case it was processed as a 'refund' to give me back partial (re-ticketed) points. In fact, they told me on the phone that credit wasn't even an option for this specific type of partly-flown fare. The agent even stopped herself short of offering it...

Depends on whether talking taxes or points, as far as it being a reprice, albeit they quoted me a precise dollar figure for the monetary refund (taxes), based on deducting what was flown from the original OWA ticket costs (points/taxes), rather than building it out again. First segment was only...

I'm just a lowly Bronze, so I suspect by 19k miles, you probably reached the points 'cap' if it had been based on each segment being individual flights. For example, with my 7k miles flown, the equivalent points used on the first flight would be either 119k business or 58k economy...so once they...

While this is normally the case, you'll find given the circumstances, Qantas are adopting a more lenient take over everything in the moment. A couple pages back I queried the partly-flown OWA situation, as I had only gone 7k miles into my itinerary. I followed it up with Qantas a few days ago...

Same boat here, but is there anything preventing you and I from necessarily making a (domestic) booking with the credit, and then following through for the cancellation later? When you say you're not able to now, I assume you mean follow through with the actual flight, but even with the...

I am/was also part-way through a OWA ticket. On the website, with this cancellation option that has come up in recent days, if I click "continue" on the first page, what does it show on the second page? Is there a 'confirm' option on that second confirmation page, or even some sort of estimate...

I was just reading the Amex Ultimate policy earlier today - still trying to decide what, if any other insurance provider I'll sign up with - but it's blatantly pointed out in the exclusions and terminations section: "cover will terminate at the earlier of the following....cancellation of your...

Cathay Dragonair show up between HK and Hanoi. Try a dummy booking with that leg and see if it maxes out? I think I played around with dates and routes at one point including them and it mayyyyy have been included as part of OWA, but maybe I'm mistaken. I managed to add Iberia Express to my OWA...

Ahh, makes sense! Didn't know that, many thanks.

Your Iberia flight(s) will likely be (one of the reasons) triggering the error on the Qantas website as from what I understand, they sometimes have been calculating the fares/taxes on that manually. I'll leave others to comment on any other observations. edit/p.s. - assume you'll be looking for...

Just a quick one guys - have had my e-ticket for a couple days now with 'confirmed' flights and all, however, is it somewhat common that the Iberia and/or AA websites have errors recognising/retrieving the flights when using the PNR? Iberia keeps giving me "A general error has occurred We...

The only thing I might caution as far as booking half or there abouts online and adding in the rest later, is from my own account the other day - dealing with NZ too, on a couple occasions. This was where I had a LATAM flight on the itinerary and basically, due to their OW departure, their...

I only had callback option come up early in the morning before 9:30am. No service fee. I think as long as it's clear you've had a genuine problem being able to book online, it'll be waived. I didn't/wouldn't start by throwing the whole, 'can you waive the fee' right from the beginning, but if...

It took me 6 goes to finally get a hold of Australia, and it was through a callback a couple days ago when their phone systems went down. They actually called from a private number instead (which isn't the norm) and the guy was truly, truly magnificent. Went above and beyond, was personable...

Had an agent tell me that a transit between two flights across successive calendar days was considered a stopover, even though the time between flights was less than 24 hours.

Cheers for the tip there, sounds like I need to set my alarm and get up early. I'm closing in on 10 hours on the phone with them since Saturday...the short calls were just to sign up for callback, which I hung up once it was Philippines and they didn't know OWA from RTW. Not once got Aus yet.

I've been frantically trying to rework my itinerary since the LATAM debacle I encountered a couple days back. Could someone point out where I'm going wrong here? I'm coming unstuck with the US internal section (below). Other sections all seem to work, and distance/airlines all fine. Given my...

I asked the hypothetical that if it was just a change to another partner flight on the ticket, which I was trying to do anyways, what would happen. And similarly, since that would result in a reissued ticket, the advice I received was that it would create the same issue as well. First operator...
