Hope to fly it on Dec 13th morning, just in 3 days. Anybody will be there same day? :)

There are direct BA and Vueling flights from London - whether anyone will be needing them is a different matter!

Well, they are flexible it seems. Anyway, good find. You can indeed still do it that way and you can still book it.

When making the booking yesterday and looking at the Fare Rules & Restrictions it was clearly stated that you could cancel without penalty, today it only shows this:

"We have not received information regarding the rules or restrictions for this flight. When you purchase your ticket, you agree to the following rules and restrictions. Please assume that the fare is non-refundable and any change or cancellation will result in full forfeiture of the value of the ticket with no refund or credit available. Rules and restrictions as imposed by the airline(s) will be applicable to your fare should you need to change or cancel your flight(s). Airline tickets are non-transferable. Some flights do not qualify for frequent flyer mileage accrual."

Which means that if you cancel the ticket yourself it might be very difficult to get a refund.

Yes, I forgot that London is not just LHR. :D Still, if they are honoured, Tuscany is not a bad place for a bit of a road trip the day before.

How many are booked? Well, my FCO-NRT is showing 4 available seats out of 30 two months out. Not the most optimal inventory control.

Except I have meetings and am interviewing a couple of people for analyst positions in nottingham until 3pm on Thursday. Flight is 11:30am on Friday. Might be able to catch the last Vueling to Rome from Gatwick, or AZ to Milan from LCY or LHR with AZ points.

Can you make an example? I can't seem to find it.

Just checked my booking on AZ "manage booking" website. It's got the outbound leg (operated by Air France) including pre-assigned seat numbers, but when I check the inbound on AA.com (flight operated by IB) it can find the PAX details but not the actual booking/routing information and refers me to their reservation phone line. eBookers is still saying the "ticketing is in progress" but assume the AA.com leg is the reason it's not ticketed yet...

Guess I'll lie low and see what happens with everyone else.

You were probably booking in D bucket, which is generally quite well stocked so no surprise a lot could have been sold. In fact J bucket was only 100£ extra.

If you have not ticketed yet chances are getting slimmer, but fingers crossed!

Aaah, what the heck, it's 570 UKP, and I did it, I'd just go there for the miles and for fun. I did DUS-CPH-KEF-YYZ(SK/FI/FI)/YQG-YYZ-FCO-FLR(AC/AZ/AZ), it would've been even lower (500 UKP) if I fly BA on DUS-YYZ but it doesn't have Wifi, I could save a working day on board with FI.

In the end, I'll be glad if either one of them gets honored. When/where else can you get EU-Canada tickets this low ($700), gotta take any chance.

Here is one.

Other dates / routes give other prices.

Ouch.

Just checked AZs twitter account, and I have to say that I am positively surprised that nobody has asked about this fare or indicated that it might be a mistake. You almost always see somebody asking that during an ongoing mistake fare.
