I've noticed that the fares for my dates have been fluctuating a lot. One day after I called, the flight I wanted was available again, but it was too late to change without penalty at that point. The booking is in the N fare class.
I realize it was my mistake, but I found it quite frustrating that there seemed to be no way to fix the mistake right away since neither the website or reservations were available to help me that night. I suppose I could have tried to cancel and rebook, but that would have tied up most of my credit line until they got around to refunding the cancelled tickets.
This means we will be killing time in LA for two nights instead of one, with one day less to enjoy Hong Kong before going on to MNL than we planned on. No offense to LA, but we'd rather get to Hong Kong as soon as we can.
N is not available anymore on those two flights, and not even on your currently ticketed flight:
25-Nov CX 883: F4 A4 J9 C9 D9 I9 W9 R9 E8 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V7 S0

26-Nov CX 881: F5 A5 J9 C9 D9 I9 W9 R9 E7 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V0 S0

Those flights have lower availability than your current flight n(V7, V0 versus V9). You may not be able to book N for those flights even if you have not made that mistake. At this moment with no N availability, you will not be able to change the flight even if doable in N (I am not sure if N ticket can be changed). It is possible that N may open the last 2 days. You can check if you can re-ticket at that time (again if fare rules allow such change).
