People, please edit/use the wiki so same questions are not always asked.

The current CTA decision on the Yangon deal is only for tickets canceled by SWISS Airlines for the seven merged complaints/companions and tickets canceled by Jet Airways for one complainant and companions
- It's not about other carriers because each carrier submits different tariffs.
- If you are not one of the complainants or their companions above who were mentioned in the respective cases, you need to submit a case yourself for hearing.
- There's currently one person who is on Iberia for CTA decision, one can either wait for results or submit a complaint to CTA.

Result of the current case for LX in brief is:
- CTA found 5(F) in the tariff used to be unclear for canceling tickets on erroneously quoted fares.
- 5(F) is unjust and unreasonable and must be revised or taken down by July 9, 2013 (or SWISS can appeal by then)
- SWISS did not use its tariff correctly to cancel the tickets.
- SWISS must compensate one complainant's First Class ticket and any related expenses by July 18, 2013 provided with evidence.
- SWISS must transport other complainants (and their companions) in the original price charged with same booking class and routing by June 18, 2014.

Result of the current case for 9W in brief is:
- Tariff on file had no clauses for "erroneous fares" and was updated subsequently, which means it is not relevant to this event
- Therefore, 9W is to reinstate the tickets with a 1-year validity for transport between the same points and the same booking class.


CTA official news can be read here for general overview of the case.

Actual CTA case review can be found here for reference should you wish to file a complaint.

If you have a similar case that's with SWISS, you need to file with CTA to get a result through informal process first before it gets to formal process. The entire procedure can take up to 3 months for each and the result may not be same cause it's case-by-base and the reviewer of the case can be different.

To file an informal complaint with CTA, see here. Click through all of the pages to get to the online form for the informal complaint. Or click here.

To file a formal complaint after informal complaint has been closed, see here. Continue on to the next page to see the address or email address for the formal complaint.

The July 17th and 18th responses from LX can be found here:

It's actually a 4th go-round. There was the original (labeled as SFO)...then an economy revival to the east coast...then a revival on the west coast of Canada...now this revival to the east coast of Canada.

Oh, and I'm not including the African, Australian or Saudi variations...

Has anybody checked South America recently? Oh, right, there were some that showed up in Iteration #1, I think.

Exceedingly stupid question time: how do you know when your travelocity itin is ticketed?

I looked at an old itin in my history and can't see any indication of e-ticket number(s), much like I can't for my three new bookings.

Would it be fair to assume that the reason I haven't received an email confirmation from t'ocity for any of my three recent bookings is because they haven't yet been ticketed?

I'm completely unable to replicate the travelocity bookings in the big E and am torn because I don't want to "lose" these bookings but also don't want to tie up a bunch of available credit card balances in duplicate bookings.
