DO NOT CALL THE AIRLINES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE WHILE A DEAL IS STILL ACTIVE.
Fare is gone: You can safely add your frequent flyer number, get seat assignments and poke about in your itinerary.

Check Alitalia status: https://mm.alitalia.com/us_en/BOOKING/Apvsearch.aspx
(middle names should be included with the first name without a space IN CAPITAL LETTERS. For example, First Middle O'Last becomes "FIRST MIDDLE" "O LAST"):
Check KLM/AF status: http://www.airfrance.us/cgi-bin/AF/U...rRbkAction.do?

Will this ticket be honored?
Based on the history of these deals and the US Department of Transportation rules you should be fine if you have a ticket number.
If your JFK-MXP flight shows as cancelled on the KLM website and the Alitalia website gives an error, don't worry about it. That having been said, there are several people about to do this, and if you're one of them please share you experience on this leg (if you cannot edit the wiki, PM WhIteSidE).

Will I earn miles?
If you are in this for miles be aware that you may not earn miles.
More generally, these very cheap fares will typically not earn full miles. In some ways, AZ may be a good program to earn to as it appears many of the AF and KL flights that would earn 25% into their programs will earn 50% into AZ. It seems that most people departing from JFK are booked in O class which may not have much earning. Some people departing from LAX have V or other classes which do have earning benefits. The most earning will probably occur on an 057 (AF) or 074 (KL) ticketed and operated flight, credited to AS, if and only if the fare class is one of those listed as eligible on the Alaska earning website.

Will I earn miles?
If you are in this for miles be aware that you may not earn miles.
- Delta: Booked on carrier websites: Yes. Despite earlier concerns, it appears that these fares will earn, miles on DL even if booked via priceline, as reported by cataclysmicvoid.
1.1. For 006 ticket with flight operated by AZ probably not. See this post. Please report back your experience. - Alaska: No on AZ segments. No on most AF/KL segments because of the fare code. No on DL segments if not booked on 006 stock. No on DL if booked into O class. Yes on DL segments if you have a 006 ticket stock.
- KLM: Yes (will be at 50% or 25% depending on the exact fare booked)
- Air France: Yes (will be at 50% or 25% depending on the exact fare booked)
- Alitalia: Yes (will be at 50% depending on the exact fare booked)
More generally, these very cheap fares will typically not earn full miles. In some ways, AZ may be a good program to earn to as it appears many of the AF and KL flights that would earn 25% into their programs will earn 50% into AZ.

006 stock refers to a ticket that's issued on Delta stock. The reason some (including myself) are mentioning is simple. In the event the airlines try to cancel this fare for some reason, having a DL ticket number and having a DL flight (in my case JFK - MXP) should theoretically prevent DL from canceling the trip per DOT regulations. I think in theory as well if AZ were to go under before your trip, being on DL stock would require DL to accommodate you as the ticketing carrier
That is not to say that having it ticketed in 057 stock (AZ stock) wouldn't have the same outcome (since one of the flight's touches the US DOT regs apply). It's all irrelevant if there is no issue with these tickets and isn't something to worry about at this point. Shouldn't make any difference.[/QUOTE]
Sorry if this is a silly question but what is this talk about AZ going under?
