I have selected some lengthy connecting segments in order to get to AAdvantage gold for the first time, all of which routings offered in the flight selection process.

I called AA reservations who first said it seemed odd then, after being on hold for some time, told me not to worry - that it would definitely be ticketed - and that it was because the fare was being purchased in ŁUK and there were lots of calculations to do with the taxes etc. I was assured that the fare would not change and I need not worry.

I tried to get a reference for the call - in case I need to refer back to it, should things not be quite as smooth as promised - but it seems this is not possible.

Should I worry?
