Many people here dislike posting the FlyerTalk finds to this "service" because so many people (airlines and sites like Travelocity) have signed up for it and the fear is that releasing a "fare alert" will kill the deal.

I sort of tend to agree with that assessment myself, but this is not the time or the place to debate it.

Eeesh. In the worst case scenario, you end up with a "bad" business class seat assignment.

Well said!

It is an email based alert for 'hot deals', this deal seems to have gone dead once it was published on fare alert

Who's the first to go on a trip? Take photos of the cabin. Airliners.net only has 2.

Sorry if this was already asked...

I'm waiting to see how this plays out...as are other posters, I'm hoping I can drop the MXP-LCA-LCA-MXP segments and stay in Italy, although it's only 3 nights there then I have a 4 night 'layover' in Italy, it would still be better IMHO to stay in Italy.
I also have seats assigned only on the last segment MXP-YYZ.
Why the panic to avoid Cyprus? Brits and Swedes have been holidaying there for years.

No tracking number yet. I called Cheaptickets and CSR said the paper ticket was already issed. She was rather rude when I asked her about the possibility of changing my flight from MIL to LCA. Now lets see when I get the tickets. Got one but somehow could not get a second initiary to work.

I asked for overnight Fedex for my tickets ... can I get this refunded/reduced if these tickets end up getting held-up for days until a "decision" is made?

Sorry, just can't help it

Booked about 1pm EDT. Have confirmation numbers, my cc has been charged, but still waiting on ticket numbers.

Reservation still shows up on Orbitz.

What about photos for loungeguide.net?

I created the SEA BA page there...if there's still gaps after my planned September trip, I'll add that.

I can view the tickets on aircanada's site, using the AC PNR, but it is showing a status of 'unticketed'.
