If you have not been charged I can guarantee your tickets have not been issued which leads to one of 2 problems. The first problem is your rez may cancel if it's unticketed depending on what the agent entered as a ticketing field. The 2nd problem would be if you wait till you get to the airport without tickets issued the advance purchase fare will not be avaialble and you be out of luck not to mention how time consuming it would be to fix it at that point, you may miss the flight while the agents sort it out. You won't get to fly for free......

I recently purchased two tickets through American with AAdvantage miles plus a co-payment, i.e., 20,000 miles plus $295 plus $42.00 tax for a RT DFW-LGW in December.
I gave the AAdvantage folks all the appropriate information over the phone, and my tickets came in the mail a few days later. However, when I check my credit card account online it shows the $42 tax being charged for both tickets, but only ONE $295 charge.
Any ideas about what's up? Is either of these tickets invalid to use?
