I am going to provide some limited info here, so you know if you are actually talking about compressed strike or something else. After that I would ask all discussions about it move to PM's, this thread is not about trying to decipher the trick together on the public forum because this is exactly what kills it quickly.

1. Compressed strike is not limited to specific country, OTA, or airline, including "striking part"
2. It is capable to reuse some zombie strikes
3. It is capable to dump many airlines / alliances at once.
4. It is not like previously reported strikes (reported in and out burger strike or others), actual approach is different.

Now as a reminder - this thread is about possibilities, and everyone has to do own homework trying to achieve the possibilities.
well clearly my understanding of what compression is about was barking up the wrong tree in the rainforest.

also,

Having been a part of this thread, for what, 5 years now?, I know people who have lost all their money with 3x and 1x tickets. If you think otherwise, and you ll be special, good luck to ya, go ahead and skip your Air Astana 1x.
