Hi cAAl,
Thanks for your response. I didn't, however, make myself clear. I have 2 rt tix LAX-FCO, one paid AF, one award DL (didn't have enough DL miles for a 2nd tix as I had transferred to HH for the Cavalieri!) I paid for the AF tix to match the route given on the DL award. So there's 2 tix on the AF/DL ATL-CDG segment that AF
could sell for additional revenue by putting us on a LAX to CDG route,
assuming that there's space left when we leave in a few weeks. Obviously I can, and will, call AF directly closer to the departure date but I was hoping that someone may have had something similar happen or knew how the way to go about it.
It does sound like a pipe dream, though, given the way airlines operate

#1: Air France, like any airline, can and do overbook, so that eliminates the "problem" of your using up two seats on the ATL-CDG flight
#2: As my geometry teacher from the 9th grade would say, "assumption is the root of all evil."
