If it is decided that tickets to be voided I doubt IB or LA will make a distinction whether you travel during the next days, within or after 14 days. All to be voided.

From the Priceline email:
”If you believe this cancellation or change by the airline was made in error, please contact our Customer Care Team at 1-800-340-0575.”

Anyone tried that? 😁

Had the oddest call with Iberia customer support - he asked "you said you wanted to change something?"
I said, "no no, I received an email saying that something's changed on my reservation. I just wanted to confirm that everything still stands."
To which he said, "oh, no no, everything is fine with your booking."

I asked, "so everything is still confirmed on my booking?"
The agent replied, "yes, all your flights are still confiremd."

Did I just get a guy who hasnt got the memo?

I have had this issue in the past with IB and LA on a ticket operated by IB but with LA flight numbers. Will let you all know what happens. So I’m guessing the email I got from Priceline was due to my LIM-MAD flight being moved back a day.

I wonder if we can take advantage of the lie?
Perhaps small claims in UK or EU court?

Now my booking has disappeared from my LATAM app. Will try LATAM tomorrow.

Got it, thanks.

As an aside, I’m going to be doing that in October. Any suggestions on airlines from BUE to SCL? Ever since LATAM doesn’t take Avios, I’m up for suggestions

I'll stay (assuming the tickets will not be cancelled) for 48 hours in SCL. Never been to Chile before, should I expect difficult questions at immigration given the short time I will spend in the country?

I know that there used to be some fifth-freedom flights on KLM between EZE and SCL and Air Canada also was operating the route. I am pretty sure that KLM still does it almost daily, not sure about AC.
Aerolineas Argentinas flies the route from AEP airport (closer to Buenos Aires than EZE), good if you can book using Skyteam miles for cheap, but don't expect much service. Jet smart and some other low cost airlines also fly the route.
I thought that to book award flights on LATAM using avios since the departure from OneWorld, you would need to call BAEC (cannot be done online anymore)
