The original ticket was booked, prised and deposit paid with cheap exMPM prices from QF on 3.8.2016 when QF had old exMPM fares still filed in the system. The final payment and ticketing took place on 6.8.2016. At that time QF didn't have anymore the old MPM price, only AY/JJ/LA/MH/S7/UL had that price left at the time of ticketing.
The ticket is currently on AY stock. AY first said that LA should make the change, but LA is not agreeing to touch the ticket for anything. AY finally agreed to do the change, but they are quoting the price difference between old and new exMPM price.
Should I be able to upfare my ticket from DONE5 to DONE6 by paying only the old fare difference (and tax difference of course)? In my understanding it should be possible given that AY had the price filed at the time of ticketing. And how should I proceed to get the rerouting done?
We are also in the middle adding a continent on to our ex Cai Aone3.
We ticketed through BA as that was the carrier that picked up the Cai booking. BA has acknowledged that they will use the historical fare, the fare at the time of booking to price the extra continent. However, if that actually occurs is yet another issue. I will keep you posted on my success.
