I have a trip booked by a client for a meeting in Vegas (6 days to departure, ex SFO, y cabin with FF# in it) and looked at it this morning - it showed only a PC seat, and no "First Class Waitlisted". So I used the chat function and told them it seemed to have a glitch, to re-request and see if it would reset properly.
That did the trick, and it now shows F waitlisted. My question is does that also reset my place on the waitlist like re-ticketing does, or does the ticket date/fare still trump time requested? Any data?
Not a big deal really for this flight, but just curious, as this was a new one to me.
I believe it would have reset your “time of booking” as the agent likely added you to the waitlist
at that specific time rather than the system having added you at booking. I don’t know if supervisors can still tinker with the WL and manually set TOB, but I believe it was rare and heavily frowned upon.
Similar holds true for one rebooks a flight (eg fare sale, moving to a different time slot) - place on WL is reset.
Let us know how it turns out! 🤙🏻🥃
