Any experience changing a Priceline reservation? They don't seem to allow you to change online. I'm considering a change but not sure if I will actually need to change so I don't want to spend time calling up just yet.

the PL people are total idiots. I've had no luck whatsoever so am considering the next steps
Are they just being generally uncooperative/incompetent or citing lack of inventory? |

As I feared.

No show fee for recent error fares?
I have YVR-HKG then HKG-HAN) booked as part of the recent RT error fares in class code A. Not planning on showing up for either of them.
For the first leg terms found on EF indicate a 200 CAD no-show fee plus 100 CAD change fee. Is that correct? Any way around this? Here is the relevant section of fare bucket terms:

I hope you do not show up. Maybe they will take your fee and buy a bottle of Krug for me to enjoy on YVR-HKG!

Why no show vs. just cancel?

Because cancelling would involve a fee. I'm hoping there's a way to avoid fees entirely with a no-show instead.

Has anybody successfully changed their dates for free? I have a DAD-HKG-JFK EWR-HKG-DAD ticket with booking classes J,A,C,C and would like to change the last leg (HKG-DAD) to a later date.

I have managed to book my positioning flight to HAN, and will spend one night in Hanoi staying at the Hilton Hotel.
The following day, I am doing HAN-HKG-JFK // 3 hours turn around in JFK-HKG-HAN. I am planning to miss the flight in HKG, and continue on to DOH on QR. Will it be a problem "over" staying in either The Pier og The Wing lounge ? My QR flight departs at 19:00 hours so I will eventually have 12-13 hours in the First Class lounges before proceeding to the QR-Doha Transit stop. |
As a regular paid CX flyer I was already unhappy that CX sold what were clearly mistake fares and honoured them on what seemed to be a large scale.
Now I find myself needing to push back the U.S. leg of a multi-carrier award ticket by just a few days. However, Marco Polo informs me that there is zero F availability HKG-JFK between now and mid-August (when the ticket expires). Being unable to change the U.S. flight date means that it will be a no-show and the subsequent sectors, for which I redeemed hundreds of thousands of miles, will be forfeited. The only solution Cathay offers is to waitlist which in my experience is unlikely to throw up a seat. So Cathay's decision to fill a large part of its F inventory with non-Cathay loyalists flying on what they mostly know to be a mistake fare turns out to be very damaging for the feeling about Cathay of a Hong Kong based near weekly Cathay passenger like myself. |
