Ticketing CC Charge
Hi,
As mentioned booked my AONE3 a week + ago and noticed that my credit card was authorized (through Tal Aviation) with the large amount appearing on my online statement only to disappear a few days later.
So today have a ticketed AONE3 (with e-ticket number) but no charge taken. Is this something I should worry about? Or will the amount be taken at a later date?
Has this happened to anyone else?
UPDATE: CC was credited three weeks later
Thanks,
J

Is This Ticket Change Normal?
Hi,
Getting ready to set off on my AONE3 soon but had an aircraft downgrade and offered a free change I thought was not possible?
Basically CX downgraded aircraft on NRT to HKG to 330 with no other NRT alternatives. I wasn't happy as I go down to J.
So rang up AA RTW and was allowed to change airports and go on the CX F leaving HND. I thought this was considered a ticket reissue = $125? (luckily my AONE3 is 15 sectors - not that they asked).
Update: Was reissued with a new e-tkt number and payment type 'exchange'
Nevertheless am happy with the result from AA.
Also asked about any rules of compensation for downgrades after ticketing on a marketed F flight and was told - no way.

It was an airline initiated change - they can accommodate you outside the "rules" in such cases.
The number of sectors can indeed go over 16 in such cases.

Had an LONE4 in 2008 ending with NRT-MEL. About a month after the trip was ticketed, QF dumped the MEL-NRT flight, so I was rerouted through SYD and reissued a paper ticket for a 17 sector trip (which was later reissued back to an eticket mid way through due to riots in BKK and bypassing that stop on advise of the airlines and government travel warnings).
Almost happened again the following year when the online booking tool allowed a QF coded AS flight. It wasn't picked up on until AA (the ticket issuer) called me to tell me about flight changes I already knew about. AA decided to "allow" it rather then reroute the LAX-PDX via DFW.
