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:

Expedia.us also works to book.
What airline lets you book a ticket 15 months out? I don't believe any. Dec 2013??

Hmm still waiting on mine. Doesn't touch US though so maybe not worth worrying about if I'll lose it anyway.

It's been over an hour and T-City hasn't ticketed. So, I booked another on Expedia and it ticketed in about 5 minutes.

You should be able to do a round trip originating in RGN. It prices out on ITA for 2x the one way price. It's just finding it on an OTA that's a huge problem because the routing makes it not come up on simple searches.

Thanks OP for the find.

As of now, I have:
RGN-NRT NH C
NRT-FRA LH F
FRA-ZRH LX C
ZRH-YUL LX F

so 2 long hauls in F, hoping this tickets. June departure, $760. I know it's a bit over, but I get to try LH and LX F, and FRA FCT if I read the rules correctly.
