What was the fee—the standard airport fee?

It’s very good to know they can ticket a RTW in person—or is it just changes?

CX refused to re-ticket for me, maybe because no fare is in the system.

Plus, what could possibly be a reason if I ask for 160 restock?

Shouldn't they use the historical fare? :confused:

Thanks for all valuable help. Finally RJ gave me feedback but for a re-issue of rtw they charge me taxes / fuel for ~770 USD. I would like to see if you all think it is reasonable.

Is the additional continent included in the ~770 USD charge? LA doesn't usually charge much for YQ (aka fuel fines), but if the additional continent is included here, it doesn't look too bad to me.

Sadly, no. This is just the difference. The done4 upgrade to done5 is extra, as well as the $125 making it over $1100

Currently on a DONE3 NRT-BOS-JFK-LAX-SEA-ORD-DTW-PHL-DOH-BUD-xLHR-xDXB-xLHR-PEK-xHKG-xSIN-HND. (BOS and PHL are overnight connections).
Connects to/from a DAS13 with an SFO return side trip out of LAX.

Currently, the HKG-SIN is a morning flight, connecting directly from the 3am departing PEK-HKG, leaving a day in SIN before the HND flight. I want the day trip in HKG (as I have a day trip in SIN at the end of the DAS13). The HKG day trip was the original plan, but I didn't notice the booked morning HKG-SIN flight until I was merging the 3 ticketed itineraries together.

Currently on AA8890 (CX691). Want to change to AA8899 (CX711) same date (ie, free change under fare rules). QF issued ticket.

While at LAX, I asked QF about changing it. They said to talk to CX (then the QF agent called CX). CX said to talk to AA. AA said to talk to QF.

Got to SEA last night and emailed travel agent (and noted that such a change was free).
Travel agent has now replied saying all good, but need $22 for additional taxes.
Does that sound right?

Cutting through all the extraneous information (unlike you to be so verbose Himeno)

You are flying ...PEK-xHKG-SIN
and are wanting to change the second flight from the 8:10am CX departure to the 16:10 CX departure
And you are asking if there would be an extra $22 in taxes due to the change

I checked in The Matrix
and there does not appear to be any difference in taxes between the two flights

So, how much time and effort are going to invest in trying to save $22? ;)

More importantly is why QF or any other oneworld carrier all pass the buck...Surely under the terms of the alliance any oneworld member can make these date or time changes....I had a similar situation last year trying to change dates on an AA issued ticket but all sectors needing to be changed were with QF....After being bounced between QF and AA I managed to get a QF supervisor to take control and guess what ? It was effortlessly and magically changed without any charges as expected...hmm

Before 2015, other then that one time with MH at KUL, I had no issues getting any carrier to change any sector no matter who issued the ticket or who was operating the flight and have had changes made by BA, JL, CX, QF, AA, AY and IB at different points. It made no difference if the ticket was issued through an agent or directly with an airline.

However since 2015, its all been passing the buck to another airline and/or not following the change section of the fare rules.

Have you flown any sectors yet? I'm guessing not, since you want to change the second flight. My own experience with RJ is that they were happy to make routing changes after I'd flown some flights, for just the $125 (AA wanted me to pay almost $1k, claiming many taxes and fuel surcharges had been done incorrectly originally).

Very odd that neither QF nor AA would simply make the change for you. Do you recall which AA RTW agent you spoke with?

Indeed RJ is the one adding YQ in my flight, with my flight change I don't think a lot of YQ is required.

Previous $74YQ $284YR Now $433YQ $623YR

I flew first few sectors already.

Too seasonal. Need to leave by mid Nov. Indeed how can I get the list of married segments? AA used to have a PDF now not found. Also QF, if I can get PER-SYD/MEL/BNE-AKL as one segment this would be great.

Nevertheless never been to BNE could be quite nice I think.

Also flying YYZ-MCO but seems no married segment only WestJet has a flight, don't want that as no D class, that probably won't give me 2.0x EQM with AA if I elected to fly in Y. MEX as well, if can get MCO-MEX as one segment... Good that already had LAX-SJU as one segment as one married segment found... But how to get comprehensive list?

Queen's is terrific. Many cafes are here. Hippest place in Australia voted by TripAdvisor.
