In order to try multiple dates on the AM website just modify the dates in the URL - no need to go back to the sarch form every time.
When you don't want to get into phone contact you just have to buy the ticket from the OTA. In case you don't intend to change anything it should be fine.
You're so knowledgeable and helpful!
I ended up booking BCN-CDG-MEX in AF metals in June, then MEX-GRU in January. It said my bank declined the transaction, but I haven't received any fraud alert. It said it'd hold my booking for 24 hrs to make a payment. The payment link sent with the email showing an error message, chat said 'unavailable'. I called them, chose the call back option. The agent called back, payment went through. 👏🏼
I learned why Kayak was showing outrageous (for me) prices, because it was set Canada-euro. After I changed it to Ireland, I could see the same prices as in your screenshot. As with Momondo, mytrip pops up after I press 'view deal' button, which looks awfully similar to seat24 in your screenshot…
I'm intending to fly as booked, and I'll do my best avoiding paying the $300 fee, but my last leg isn't happening till January, and there is a chance there may be a schedule change, which may enable me to make a free change. Many OTAs appear difficult to deal with and they may charge a fee even for involuntary changes. Clic Air in Colombia cancelled my flight a couple of days prior to the departure, and Kiwi rebooked me to a Clic flight several hours later. I simply wanted a full refund, but Kiwi refused, their policy was that the alternative needs to be more than 48 hours from the original flight for us to be able to receive a full refund, which was ridiculous. I booked with Kiwi, only because Google Flights said to call Clic to book.
