Booked an AA ticket online tonight, and rather than giving my "American/UK/Etc" address, chose to give my Australian one and call up Reservations to authorise my credit card.
So I ring the AA number on the website: 1 300 650-747
Phone answers with an answering message to please call a 1800 International number.
Fine! So I call that number and get diverted to a US Message inviting me to press 1, 2 or 3 etc.
So I press the number for reservations.
Disconnect!
Redial number and try the process again.

Diverted to India (as expected) and then spend 18 minutes going through my details and credit card number for the booking. Havn't been asked to fax my CC through to anywhere, but they seem to have accepted my CC number.
Lots of fun! Why can't AA accept Australian credit cards at face value?
