I talked to AZ employee in my country today as I was not able to select seats with AF, so I asked AZ to do so. They were unable but they confirmed to me there is no issue with the booking. So, in my opinion, Alitalia will surely accept our tickets and we are all safe enough to start planning our holiday!

I notice that when I click on Customize My Travel on the Alitalia site, sometimes a banner pops up with the option to make an offer on an upgrade, even though my ticket shows business class and I've selected business class seats. Also, when I go to add luggage, it only gives me the option to add 1, at a cost of 240 EUR on the MAD-LAX portion, and 285 EUR for LAX-MAD. Is this perhaps to add an additional bag beyond the 2 that should be included?

The only thing that is certain is that nothing is certain with AZ.

Thanks. I saw the 240 EUR, but didn't see where the 285 came in for a 3rd piece.

I'm curious to see how the flights credit to other SkyTeam partners, particularly Delta. It should be 200% RDM, 150% MQM, and 40% MQD. If it looks like it's going to go through, I'll probably do a status challenge with Delta.

Question Alitalia error fee

Hi, I've booked error fee with Alitalia - BCN-LAX - business class week ago. I have tickets and reservation is confirmed on their website. Do you have any experience with them re error fees? Do they usually accept those or should I expect the cancelation soon?

A few years ago, the website let me book from the "International English" screen instead of the "USA" screen. This was for (6) tickets NAP-LIN (domestic Italy). On the international site, an HBO fare was available that wasn't offered for American purchases.
I saved over $300 (60€ each instead of $140). Never mentioned again, not when I called the day before departure to add checked bags to each ticket (@20€ per ticket), not when we checked in online, not at the bag drop where docs were checked and bps issued.

Welcome to FT Madeiraportugal!

Not sure about which codes you mean, but for a start with ita matrix, I'd google "how to use ita matrix". The first suggestions from google are travel blogs, where it's well explained in my opinion.

For more specific question about ita matrix, you should also have a look here

You can always book a room at a flexible rate! And change it at the very last moment if a better rate is then available.
