Original premium fare deal was for QR J class travel, originating in Vietnam (SGN and HAN) to several destinations across the Americas, Europe, and Africa. Travel period 8/2017 - 3/2018 inclusive, RT fares in the USD 500 - 700 range (USD $0.05 base fare).
Reports have now been circulating that all held, non-purchased fares have been canceled by the airline. Some held and then purchased fares were also canceled, but several reports indicate at least some of those have been re-instated.

Anyone got a screen shot showing the "Golden Ticket" column highlighted in gold? If so, can you please post it here.
As an AA ExecPlat I would have earned 46K RDMs. Figuring 1¢ a mile that means QR would have to pay out $460 for these miles on my $676 fare less about $200 in non-airline fees and taxes. In effect, the spurious Fuel Surcharge (from an oil producing Emirate when fuel is at its cheapest level in years) just about covers the cost of the FF miles that would have had to be purchased.

Mine is still showing as confirmed. Was able to apply for the free transit visa, and now I have a confirmed Doha hotel stopover (free through QR for layovers 8+ hours). Just trying to make it as difficult for them as possible to cancel (at least two more clicks of the mouse...maybe carpal tunnel will strike)
