Please:
Do NOT call the airline while the fare is still alive!
(Definitely dead now. Plead your case to have your ticket(s) reinstated!)

Looks like mine booked through AMEX Travel are canceled. AMEX can't confirm, but the record no longer works on the AirNZ website. Did a chat with AMEX and first they said all is good. Then I said it doesn't look like it. They said oh, I see you made a change to the ticket. I said I did not. In their super customer support, they said to call the airline!

Had a particularity nasty NZ agent who told me to get lost it is Expedia's problem, they did not sell me the ticket and they will not assist or recognize any ticket sold by a 3rd party until after travel has commenced (sounds bogus but...)
Anyways, Expedia seeing if they can sort out.
My other flights and hotels are going to need to be made whole by NZ.

Booked via Amex Travel. Seems cancelled now. Glad I booked positioning flights within last 24 hrs, about to intitiate cancellations now.
IAD - BNE (40k UA points)
BNE - LAX (ANZ Z class)
LAX - IAD (12.5k Avios)

Will save a lot of points as positioning was quite complex.
