OK, I went back and looked at the thread from last year's Ethiopian "mistake" fare debacle. And now I am sorry I booked today. I can see that last year's facts were very similar to what is happening now in terms of routing and "mistake" pricing. Most troubling to me is that some folks who booked last year didn't get any notification that Ethiopian was going to downgrade their tickets until months after purchase and very close to the time of departure. Uggh. That means unless I am willing to fly in Ethiopian economy (and I am not), I can't commit to any nonrefundable lodgings or activities in South Africa! Yuck. Yuck.

I might be wrong, but afaik there's a special law in NORWAY which doesn't allow a cancellation due error-fares. Something like a very strict consumer protection law...
therefore:
a) does anyone remember an ef from Norway that was cancelled before (and there were prior...)
b) does anyone know a norwegian ota?

Anyone else know anything about this possible law ?

Not sure about the laws, but during the BA flash sales in 2015 I booked 3 flights from OSL, FRA and PRG respectively. Only the OSL (Norway) one was honoured.
But nothing we say and do and wish for matters. It's a waiting game. Just sit back and see how it plays out if you booked it. That' what I will do.
