I'm confused too!

My very first segment is on AS. I guess that is why, but still seems odd since some of the flights are not even AS codeshare.

My delta TATL flights aren't codeshare and it's ticketed on RO, so I'm not really that surprised that yours is ticketed on AS. That's probably why it's so cheap

I'm looking forward to the first trip report; see if everything went smooth and was honored. I travel in early May, anyone else before me?

I just (Apr 16 12:12 AM PST) booked SFO to DPS for $370 RT on Singapore Airlines in Sept through ExploreTrip.com. I got my e-mail with a PNR and Ref # but no e-ticket #. PNR doesn't work at Singapore Air or at CheckMyTrip. Crossing my fingers, but not holding my breath....As another poster said, easy come, easy go....If it works out, AWESOME, if not, meh.

I'll keep you all posted.

I booked one of this as well last night, got my eticket and pnr, both worked on SQ and was able to select seats and enter APIs. Booked into K class, no miles other than ETH i believe.

Why? The whole point of these was that they were ticketed on the minor carrier with one segment (TP,RO,UX, etc) - not the overwater carrier.

Easy to figure out exactly what happened when looking at the structure of these tickets.

I bailed on the explore trip and found it on orbitz. When I called to cancel with explore trip, it said they were closed so I picked a different option. Someone picked up and was totally unprofessional and I kept asking to cancel. You would have thought that you called a private residence in India or something. He kept saying I had to mail the request and finally he did it for me.

I snagged it on orbitz and got eticket numbers and a PNR that worked on Singapore air and check my trip right away. Picked seats as well. Crossing my fingers!

It seems I've been double billed by TAP for this ticket.

That being said, everything else is intact and it seems as if the ticket will not be cancelled. Filed a dispute and will see what happens.

I was also double-billed at first for 2 of the 3 tickets I booked with ExploreTrip, but then the duplicate charge disappeared on its own.
