Details for Vayama Booking 14,922 MQM, $0.035CP-MQM

To provide some details, here is a screenshot from My Delta page which shows the flight. I purchased this itinerary through vayama yesterday, and it showed up immediately in My Trips on Delta.com. The ticket was purchased for $517.36. The Delta portion of the flights (JFK-SEA-KIX-SEA-JFK) are T fares, while the All Nippon Airways is an H fare, and Japan Air is booked in G. The MQM pulled from this flight for Delta is 14922 at a CPM of $0.035 each. There are miles to be had from the Osaka-Tokyo legs but not with Skyteam.





This is my first post here, but long time reader. Thought this was finally something worth sharing. If anyone else is booked for that memorial day weekend, drop me a line.

I'm booked on those flights leaving NYC 5/24 Returning 5/28. It'll be good to have some flyertalkers on the flight -- Everyone else would think we are crazy!... Has anyone figured out their hotel accomodations yet?

Here are my seats:
nyc-sea 24f
sea-kix 26G
kix-sea 27F
sea-NYC 23F

Anyone know if there is a Skyteam or Delta lounge that we can use in Osaka?

Have not visited Tokyo before, only Nagoya and Kyoto. Leaving JFK on May 24, Leaving Tokyo on May 29. Will likely spend a couple, three days in NYC on either end of the trip to spend some of that Delta voucher I didn't spend at Vayama. Anyone want to meet up or recommend an airbnb, let me know!!!

Getting excited now. A bit pooped. Will book the positioning flights to NYC later or tomorrow.

Thanks to the OP, you are my hero of the day.
Sign up for a United account and have the NH flights credited there. Same goes if you chose any JAL segments credit them to AAdvantage or other Oneworld carriers.

Just Received the following Email.....


Dear Vayama Customer ,

We recently received your online booking request. Quality control has determined that your booking could not be processed at the fare that was originally quoted. Unfortunately, the airline was unable to accept the fare that was quoted earlier and as a result, your reservation has been canceled. Per our terms and conditions, airfares and reservations are not guaranteed until tickets are issued.

We encourage you to select another option that meets your travel needs. However, do not select the same flight option that you just attempted to book as this will just lead to another canceled booking. If you have any questions please feel free to respond to this email and we will get back to you generally within 24 hours.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Sincerely,


Vayama Customer Care Team

What recourse do we have if we've already booked other arrangements? What constitutes ticketed?
