Anyways, disputed the transaction online and explained the FX situation, got word yesterday that they've sided with me and refunded my FX loss - so it's all good now.

3, Called ANA if the PVG-HND-HKG segments were fine.
The agent said yes, they were there, with seats assigned. I asked for a double check. She spent some time did that, and told me the segments were strange - with booking requests, but without a valid e-ticket number. That said, a valid segment needs both a booking request, and a workable e-ticket number, Alitalia had already ruined/fully rerouted those 055 stock tickets with some debris yet to be cleared up.
Waiting for Alitalia's official statement. Not even a slightest sign to show up.

I wonder if there is a time limit when AZ can still amend it? It is reasonable for AZ to catch this error and amend routing within, say two weeks, it is pretty egregious for AZ to come back and amend routing after six months.

Has anyone been able to get Alitalia to refund losses due to currency exchange rates? Ticket booked through eBookers, refund directly from Alitalia (plus booking fee from eBookers). I tried calling Alitalia to refund my losses due to exchange rates, but they wouldn't budge. Any point in trying to solve this with eBookers?
Not losing sleep over this, it's 25 GBP - but still a minor annoyance.

Anyone here who managed to get a refund from Expedia Netherlands/Alitalia Netherlands?
I keep calling them every few days or so (been waiting ca. 30 days now), expedia always puts me through to Alitalia and the Alitalia agent keeps saying "it will come, don't worry it takes some time". No reference numbers, no confirmations apart from an email from Expedia where AZ segments were completely removed (EK still stands in Expedia and on their own website), nothing. Payed using Ideal on Expedia so that removes the option of a CC/Paypal dispute.
Was wondering if a fellow dutchie has similar experiences :+

Update
Two weeks after AZ agent told me they initiated a refund but could neither provide written confirmation nor estimate how long it'd take, I filed a dispute (small American credit union, MasterCard Debit). They said it'll be another two weeks until I get a provisional credit and the time it takes to resolve the dispute can vary widely depending on how cooperative the counterparty is (Opodo DE in my case--looks look like the charge came from them, not from AZ). Fingers crossed.

Alitalia is an extremely shady company to deal with and I hope to never have to deal with them again.
good luck everybody 👍

Get the KLM Amex card... that's what I used. I have written confirmation, but they haven't issued the credit yet, going on 3 weeks since written confirmation of a refund. Called Amex, sent letter over and was credited immediately.
