The ticket also mentions "Class: First (A)".
I have not been charged yet, is that normal (24 hours have passed since I booked)? I usually get charged immediately on all other booking sites.
Pretty standard for Expedia email wise.
it might say First because first leg is on FC, especially if you booked QR.
Interesting since I never see immediate charges on US based OTAs, just a hold. It could be because large US based OTAs have 24 hour free cancellation based on US laws even if flights do not touch US soil. I usually see a charge 2 business days later.
All in all, if you could find the booking on the airline site, I wouldn't worry much. Even though there are some bad CS stories involving Expedia, they are usually over flight change and more of a "pain in the butt to correct" type. It is the biggest OTA in US (maybe the world).
