Okay so I've painstakingly tried every which way to build and buy the itinerary using the online tool - it isn't working. Yes, I know, the well known (relatively) ex-AMM glitch with the AA/RJ systems...

So I figure fine - I'll pop over to YYZ and ticket. Call the RTW desk - and they can't see the same availability that EF (expertflyer) has.

I need the AMM-JFK direct flight on Aug 26 -EF shows D4. They see D0 - no seats... HELP!!! Is there anything I can do?

Given this is the first segment - I'm in trouble because I can't easily change it. Any thoughts, suggestions or prayers would be welcome.

Thanks.
