Clearly OP ought to complain to HA, because HA screwed up. But, need to be proactive too.
So what is the difference between confirmation and e-ticket receipt? I'm flying an AA award with a portion on HA. So far I've been told repeatedly that I can't reserve a seat which worries me. But all I've received is my confirmation from AA. I called AA and got the HA confirmation number and looked on HA website. The reservation shows up there just fine so is that what I'm looking for or do I need to call and make sure we are actually ticketed?
