DO NOT CALL THE AIRLINES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE WHILE A DEAL IS STILL ACTIVE.
Fare is gone: You can safely add your frequent flyer number, get seat assignments and poke about in your itinerary.
Checking Your Tickets
Check Alitalia status: https://mm.alitalia.com/us_en/BOOKING/Apvsearch.aspx
(middle names should be included with the first name without a space IN CAPITAL LETTERS. For example, First Middle O'Last becomes "FIRST MIDDLE" "O LAST"):
Check KLM/AF status: http://www.airfrance.us/cgi-bin/AF/U...rRbkAction.do?
(may also work to change/select seats. A name like O'Last becomes "Olast")
Check Ticket Details: http://www.saudiairlines.com/portal/...rlines/Welcome
Double Check: http://www.checkmytrip.com
Will this ticket be honored?
Based on the history of these deals and the US Department of Transportation rules you should be fine if you have a ticket number.
If your JFK-MXP flight shows as cancelled on the KLM website and the Alitalia website gives an error, don't worry about it. That having been said, there are several people about to do this, and if you're one of them please share you experience on this leg (if you cannot edit the wiki, PM WhIteSidE).

Will I earn miles?
If you are in this for miles be aware that you may not earn miles.
More generally, these very cheap fares will typically not earn full miles. In some ways, AZ may be a good program to earn to as it appears many of the AF and KL flights that would earn 25% into their programs will earn 50% into AZ. It seems that most people departing from JFK are booked in O class which may not have much earning. Some people departing from LAX have V or other classes which do have earning benefits. The most earning will probably occur on an 057 (AF) or 074 (KL) ticketed and operated flight, credited to AS, if and only if the fare class is one of those listed as eligible on the Alaska earning website.

Will I earn miles?
If you are in this for miles be aware that you may not earn miles.
- Delta: Booked on carrier websites: Yes. Despite earlier concerns, it appears that these fares will earn, miles on DL even if booked via priceline, as reported by cataclysmicvoid.
1.1. For 006 ticket with flight operated by AZ probably not. See this post. Please report back your experience. - Alaska: No on AZ segments. No on most AF/KL segments because of the fare code. No on DL segments if not booked on 006 stock. No on DL if booked into O class. Yes on DL segments if you have a 006 ticket stock.
- KLM: Yes (will be at 50% or 25% depending on the exact fare booked)
- Air France: Yes (will be at 50% or 25% depending on the exact fare booked)
- Alitalia: Yes (will be at 50% depending on the exact fare booked)
More generally, these very cheap fares will typically not earn full miles.

[FARE GONE] RTW for about $950; Alitalia Europe/asia combo deal
Anybody that is changing their flights because of schedule change getting changed out of the O fare class? I would really like these flights to credit to AS but my entire reservation is O class= no credit to AS.
Does O class earn miles with AF or KLM?

I just experienced a schedule change for my November ticket as well, a result of the cancellation of flight AZ 478 from FRO to BUD.
My itinerary was originally LAX-CDG-FCO(23h transfer)-BUD(5 nights to split between Budapest, Vienna, and Prague), PRG-AMS(23h transfer)-PEK.
With my FCO-BUD flight being cancelled, rather than putting me on the earlier flight which would have reduced my time in Rome, they (I have no idea who "they" is at this point) put me on a flight the following day. I have no complaints about spending an extra day in Rome, but was very much looking forward to spending it in Central Europe.

Hmm, I decided to check my flight too because well DL is not my cup of tea. My JFK-MXP segment coded by AZ and operated by DL can't be found on AZ, it shows up on KLM as canceled and shows on DL but instead it doesn't show it is canceled. I have an assigned seat and everything. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm going to call DL later on today to figure this out. Worse part is I didn't get a notice from AZ about any of these changes like most of you. I'm over 50 days late.

My booking AZ JFK-Milan does not show in KLM, Saudi or Alitalia. How do I retrieve the booking to check flights?
