"Hi. Amadeus has published error rates Saturday night without fuel surcharge. This was impossible for our system to detect, and it was apparently known through various online forums. Therefore, it sold many tickets relatively cheaply to the U.S.. Unsure if United will draw tickets back or maintain them. The last time this happened tickets were upheld and people could travel. Last night went fees for about 2,000 kroner to the U.S., "writes Kongsteien.
If it was Amadeus, wouldn't this show up everywhere and not just this one website?

They do seem rather gleeful in the article, at least according to the Google Translation (good job to the poster who found it). I have virtually no knowledge of how this stuff works between ticketers, OTAs, airlines, etc, but I'd have to imagine Wideroe is gonna have fork over that YQ.
