If so then that approach is potentially problematic. The longer they wait to notify individuals the more likely those individuals will make travel plans-in some cases non-refundable. I read upthread where NZ has taken up to two weeks to cancel flights in the past. That is far too long. The FAA should consider putting a time limit for airlines to correct their mistakes. If NZ drags this out too long (assuming they will cancel these fares-which they may ultimately decide not to do) then some letters to the FAA might get things moving on a rule modification. Worth a try, anyway.

On the fence about cancelling. The Amextravel portal is pretty specific that you can cancel within 24 hours. But we all seem to regard that as the end of the next business day.
Is that written anywhere? Is that even right? I'm not sure that I've ever canceled with Amextravel after 24 hours.

I asked about changing one date - no go. Have to cancel and rebook since I still can, or, after the free-cancel period, have to pay $250 plus $39 plus the change in fare.

Just a datapoint from my two Expedia bookings:
My first booking (1 pax) done at 10:10a ET was confirmed in 5 mins and ticketed very quickly. I can also plug in the record locater on the ANZ website and select seats.
My second booking (2 pax) done at 1038a ET was confirmed in about 10 mins but still has NOT been ticketed. The message Expedia is showing me is as follows: "Your e-ticket is not yet confirmed. The airline will confirm most tickets within 5 minutes, but some ticket types can take up to 24 hours. Please visit your itinerary to see your updated ticketing status. You do not need to call us to reconfirm your booking."

The last "promotional fare" wasn't cancelled by ANZ until about 48 hours out, so I think we're still in the unknown. It's just the morning again in Auckland now. Maybe if they're all still there next week we can have some more confidence?
