I ran out of CC numbers and so used my Wells fargo debit card .. I see a charge of $277 from AA scheduled to be posted on 11/22. However I do not see the credit of around $270 from Expedia.ca. I see the payment history in my itinerary and see they have refunded on same day. I am assuming credits show up later on after the actual charge..

I agree; Shareholder please get real. These types of deals need to be acted on IMMEDIATELY. You can't wait to book something that is really too good to be true!

Yah it can take a couple days for the credit to post to the card depends on the bank, also while a charge will show as pending almost right after the transaction even though it will take a couple of days to actually post, a credit won't show as pending prior to posting.

What was the NW BUH?

Uh, Google Voice only works in the US, it's not "blocked". Google Call works in China though, as does Google Chat. Anyway, hope you're enjoying your sick MR. I'm sleepy just thinking about it! I thought my Europe MR last year was bad...

Well, we'll see if this holds water. Any thoughts about making changes to plane tickets to later dates/times?

Your welcome!

BTW, I'm only going to be in LAS for 85 minutes - any suggestions on what sights to see at the airport? Want me to drop a dime in the slots for you?

It was in "B" class on NW so earned a bonus for premium fare and yes, it was a sweet deal. ^

Those of us that "leeched" off of the offer were following all the original T&Cs: Expedia.ca was a "Canadian Booking" and we were going to LAS/NY/CUN. If someone goes to the store and buys the last of something that is on sale, do you also call them "leeches" who are in "piggish rush to the trough"?

And even after the modified T&Cs were posted, you could have still bought tickets. I can't see why you're frustrated... well, I can see why you're frustrated (because you didn't get in on the deal) but I can't see why you're upset at those of us that followed the terms and bought many tickets.

I was just saying the other day that "Other than a Black Friday trip to a customer in Montreal, I might be done with trips for the year"

Then Friday AM came about and a customer in IN requested a visit the week of 12/29. Then Friday PM came about and I scheduled trips every other day possible for me (when it was under $315, of course)

As an AC SE,I am surprised at your comment.
