I'm in the same position. I booked via an OTA referred through Momondo as well. I am able to pull the eTicket PDF from ANA on ANA (205) ticket stock. The status says OK for all segments. I also have a charge from ANA.

no e-ticket = no flying

this has been routine practice since every mistake fare since day 1

they are honoring those with issued e-tickets. that's fully honoring it.

There's still a chance ANA would not honour your ticket even you got your E-ticket confirmed. Nothing we can do right now, so be sure to stay tuned. Hopefully ANA would declare on weekday.

Fare rules allow for changes without deprive after flying the outbound. Does that mean once I'm in Sydney or can I make a change after flying the very first flight on my itinerary?

Would be interesting, I got 1,5 hours connecting time in SEA - which def will not work with the lines in immigration and recheck my bag

Yep, I'll keep monitoring this thread and hold off booking a positioning flight for a few days.

Ended up recovering ~ 900 EUR in damages from them through my attorney as I had to fly to NRT on my own dime to pick up the Delta connection flight to LAX. No NH staff available locally to fix it.

The KE & LX Fares in First were great though. Ah, memories... ^

On the return? Haven't done immigration in a while, but it's very YMMV anyway. If you miss a flight stuck in a line I don't think it would be a problem to get rebooked for a later one.

You can change it even after in SEA, LAX, SFO, YYC or whatever other airport allowed but you'd still need the change fee and fare difference if the booking class isn't available.

I was in the same position and was rerouted through BKK without any issues. LX was the one reneging their end though.

I need to change my return date anyway so don't mind the fee but same fare bucket availability may be very tough.

450 CAD for the change is pretty rough. Maybe you'll get a schedule change to get a waiver (or just get an agent that won't notice).
Invest 10 bucks in Expertflyer/KVS or use ITA Matrix with a forced fare code to see how the availability goes. Luckily, Z isn't the lowest buck so might be more available.

Also, not sure how the 21 day advance purchase requirement fits in changes to the return so perhaps someone with more knowledge can chime in.

at the time these fares were booked did ANA communicate they would honour them?

how is it rough? It still makes for a less than $1200CAD business class ticket to SYD! I wonder if I can try get an agent to push through a change now without a reprice.

Its on the return and there is no change I make it trough immigration & get my luggage in 24 minutes to be in time for the baggage drop off before they close check in.

Not so sure about the rebooking, since the flight is with AS booked in economy but I'm also not sure if its worth to try to get them rebook me on an later flight (or a other routing via SFO for example which is in the same fare category) without a charge since getting the flight is impossible...in a couple of days of course
