That $100 fare looks like a placeholder figure used internally prior to finalizing/publishing the fares. It's certainly not a currency conversion issue. Anyway, just a guess.

Good morning folk.
Good news, fare is honoured.
Just spent 1hr+ on the AF Platinum line (+33 (0)1 85 14 82 23) because I put on hold my second booking, and was not able to pay it online after.
Agent we're shocked of the price, didn't want to confirm the ticket at this price.
Asked for a supervisor, who after an hour on the line, sent me the confirmation and ETKT number.
He confirmed me he spoke with his superior and they accepted the error.
Have a nice flights guys!

Are you sure you are using the correct confirmation number?
(For the avoidance of all doubt: You need to look this up on the Air France or KLM websites; if booked directly from Air France, the Amadeus PNR won't work on any other website)
If you are using a Delta-issued PNR, then that won't work on the Air France website (the airlines, though partners, use different GDSes)

Two orders of magnitude means a factor of 100.
You surely don't mean to suggest that the going rate shoud have been $151,500????
(Or maybe you intended to give the fare in cents - in which case, it's correct and all's well )

Spoke with someone who is knowledgeable on the situation and Delta is responsible for pricing these AF F fares. Let's hope the recent ATL madness will result in AF/DL honoring these fares and avoiding more bad press. Possible Delta will cut AF a check for any losses.

Yes, they are JV partners and do work together on pricing fares, but I suspect both airlines still independently determine and file their own fares.
