It says that the seat selection cannot be changed on the US website... I can however still select all seats on the CDG-LHR segment... Anyone else seeing this ?
I see the same exact thing for La Premiere segments. Reservation still intact on FB website as of 1:06pm PST

Because at the very least it might save you the trouble of having to go through the hassle of attempting to claim a refund - which may or may not ever be paid to you!

i might try to test the water a bit with this one. Booked a roundtrip positioning on AS. Since I'm Gold, it's risk free cancel for me. But for AF's purpose, they owe me money if they decide not to honor their ticket

As an update, I went to the KLM website and entered my booking info and was able to switch seats on the La Premiere segments. I recall running into this issue with an AF award ticket previously and updating the seating via KLM did the trick. As point of reference, I booked direct on AF.
channa and palmanfr like this.

At this point I am still assuming it's all going to be cancelled, but I'm worried I'll break my F5 key before I find out for sure. I guess it's night time over in Paris, so we probably won't hear anything today.

Data Point: I booked one of these for October 2018 and added the reservation to my Air France mobile app. Just checked back and the October reservation is no longer in there, tried to add it back and received an error message. March 2018 reservation still in tact, but I'm not holding my breath.

My reservation for June 2018 appears to have been cancelled. Booked and ticketed on AF. No longer pulls up on AF website.

Edit: DL stock tickets are still in tact for now.

Welp, guess I'm just waiting for the ax to drop. It was fun while it lasted.

Did anyone with a cancelled reservation receive an email, or did the reservation just disappear from the app?

No communication. It just disappeared, in my case from the website. I am met with the following error:

Your reservation file is empty. Please contact our customer service for information about this file.
