LAN Cancelled IPC-LIM
 

So as an update to how this itinerary is evolving post-ticketing, LAN cancelled the IPC-LIM route from April through December, requiring a connection through Santiago. LAN protected me on a flight with an overnight connection to a 6:40am departure in regional Y+ :td:

The wonderful AA RTW desk called me to inform me of this, and I was initially prepared with ExperFlyer knowledge to be put on a flight two hours later that was on an international configuration 767. The wonderful Meredith, head of the AA RTW desk, came up with a better idea, and put me on the following day's once weekly morning flight out of Easter Island so I could connect to Lima without spending another night in Santiago.

Then came the issue of my ticket now having 17 segments and wonderful British Airways not accepting paper tickets :td:

Meredith had a perfect solution worked out, she will hold the reservation IPC-SCL-LIM for me until I fly my first few flights leaving IPC-LIM officially as an open segment at this time, and then reissue the ticket after I fly the first few segments of the ticket with the IPC-SCL-LIM segments included.

Wonderful customer service, AA!
