When I go online to book an AA Business Saver Ticket from SAN-LHR I see taxes of $5.60 per ticket (By the way the only date till the end of the year with an AA Business Saver ticket SAN-LHR is Nov 19)
When I go online to book a Business Ticket from LHR-NCE I see taxes and surcharges of $56.40 per ticket.
I have about a 6-hour layover in LHR.

If I am correct in my math I should be owed a refund of $584.40 per ticket? ($646.40-$5.60-$56.40) OR should I be getting the whole $600 Carrier Imposed Fees back I see on the original ticket?

Does anyone know a direct phone number for the refund department?
Just call reservations and they'll get a recalculation of the fees and initiate the refund process.
