To everybody calling the OTA today / right now: what's the point? Just let it sit for a couple of days, then you can still call if needed and they will have all the info (and time) they are lacking right now...
Do you think your itineraries will get reinstated just because you were the first to call?

So the Orbitz agent spoke with Alitalia regarding my changed FLR-SIN-DUS trip with AF/CX. They will try to reaccommodate me to get what I originally booked. Will get a call back within the next 24hrs with (hopefully) new confirmed tickets to SIN.

My outbound, 28 Jan, AZ PNR, AF metal seems to have disappeared... return on LH still there. No e-mail.
Tried to pull up the PNR on AZ site, got a message the itinerary has been cancelled, or flight was already flown.
Bought on e-bookers, everything still showing in tact on e-bookers though, and the Saudi site. I suspect that is all ghost info, and will disappear within a few hours.
The whole itinerary used to show on the LH site, but now the outbound no longer shows.
Edit: AZ PNR has definitely disappeared

As some folks earlier in this mega thread had a benefit to get reissued on another stock so I figure it can't hurt to try, as at least now there is a change I can call about.
Might be a waste of time I admit, but if it will be canceled anyway I am not sure there is anything to loose.
Now the real question is can I get through and finish the call before the wifey gets home (maybe I forgot to mention the surprise trip to ICN in Feb.)

Not all systems are constantly in touch with each other.

While it's clear that AZ made a mistake, it's also clear that if I make mistake during the booking process I do not have any right to rectify it (imagine if you book the wrong date or the wrong airport...), while the airlines can rectify their mistakes even if they notice it after a week or a month. And this is really unfair according to me.
I agree there probably should be limits as to how long they can rectify mistakes just to avoid people being stranded.

Every flight that doesn't connect solely in FCO will be cancelled.

Is that a good reason?

XXX-HKG-DUS
if you do DUS-XXX cheaply you could still fly on say CX for a huge discount, no?
