So are we revising the mistake fare reaction from "wait to see if it'll be honored" to "quick, make non-refundable arrangements!"?
Sure. If you want to run the risk that the carrier and then DOT, will say that it's not reasonable for someone to incur non-refundable costs instantly after confirming a mistake fare ticket.
DOT leaves a ton of wiggle room by inserting "reasonable" and an average reasonable person not wanting to risk a serious loss, would be well to hold for a bit to see if his fare is honored.
