How long did it take with opodo? I booked my tickets through opodo too and still not ticketed after 40 mins.

I booked on opodo 2 hrs ago and no ticket # as yet. I wonder if the other poster had a reservation as opposed to being ticketed.

Vayama ticketed a RGN-YVR for 1 pax in KE F for me for June 2012.

*** however, in checkmytrip.com under Misc Notes it shows a comment: RETENTION *** not sure what that will mean

The second one, for 2 pax RGN-YVR in KE F at a date in October was booked, then cancelled by them without being ticketed.

Tried booking a third time on cheaptickets.hk and it's booked pending review in ticketing queue. Hasn't been rejected or processed in any way.

I will wait a few hours and try again to get something ticketed for October in Vancouver with my +1.

Vayama--it seems to ticket quicker. I booked on BT and it is only showing "customer submitted"--it is not even in the ticketing queue.

What record locator did you use for Checkmytrip.com? None of mine from Vayama seem to be working for me...

Doesn't vayama charge a booking fee?

Vayama gave me a Vayama reference, a KE and a TG locator. The TG locator works for me.

My "confirmed" booking on my BA account seems to have gone... Fairly sure I'll be getting a "Unable to ticket" email shortly.

Oh well, it will be interesting to see how people who have been issued tickets get on.

I booked on BT and just received an email that says this -

UNABLE TO TICKET YOUR FLIGHT RESERVATION


...due to an incorrect airline fare filing that was discovered during the ticketing process. Airlines do not permit ticketing reservations using invalid fares.

Stay away from FT for a day and mayhem begins...
I booked RGN-SIN-TYO-SFO in C with SQ and NH 77W for $517 on BT. I'm not even sure how I'm getting to Rangoon, but I don't fly until Dec. assuming it is not cancelled (I expect it will be).

The TG locator worked for me as well on CheckMyTrip, and I'm also getting the "RETENTION" note on the miscellaneous field.

I just found that Travelocity also shows me flights from RGN-YVR with the TATL part in First class and the regional sectors in J, but Travelocity shows me a mix of Air China Intl, KE and China Eastern. It looks as though it gets ticketed by Air China Intl!

The same dates vayama would show me a mix of TG and KE, ticketed by KE

I booked, got verfication call from Travelocity within an hour (I am a new customer). 5 mins after that call, I now got 2 seats in October. RGN-YVR for about 750USD per person all in. Ticketed!

EDIT: Nope. The e-ticket numbers from Travelocity with the China Air sectors and only the TATL in KE F are starting with 180- so also KE stock.

Got 2 in October.

RGN-SIN (18 hour stop), SIN-LHR (18 hour stop), LHR-BOS.

SQ A380 on the long haul.

$396 each. If ticketed, on DL stock.

I can see the reservation on DL.com
