As Xandrios said this is very common. The thing you won't see without payment is a ticket. With most airlines you don't see them as they don't give you the PNR number until after payment but AFKL shows any PNR with your FB number attached to it, including unticketed ones.

I gather the "on hold" by accident, would fall off after some time has passed? Or it will take 24 hours to disappear? I hope it will fall off so I can start a new booking, this time will go thru the payment process to purchase the ticket... I dont want to endure the long hold time by calling AF to pay over the phone...
It will take up to 24 hours to disappear but you can rebook in the mean time just fine. If you want to use the original reservation for some reason you can call them and pay for it over the phone. Sadly there is no online process for this unless you used the "hold this reservation for 3 days" option.
