PS. I presume (and please correct me if I am wrong), your legal qualifications have Germanic origins?

So at this point it'd be useless for me to file complaint with DOT since it's verbal he says she says?

Have anyone received such statement in writing from EY? WHen I spoke w/EY she quickly (and arrogantly) said "ma'am you are welcome to pay the fare difference if you want access to lounge, limo, etc"- I wanted to scream at her but thought it'd be a waste of time. I did tell her that EY needed to honor all the perks that came with F class- no exception. She kept saying, fare was coded wrong, so we reserve the right to modify the amenities. What the heck does that even mean?

EY agents happily read out those same notes, that TGflyergirl posted, to a poster upthread when s/he called. You can call and get the same and then do it [file with DOT] on hearsay basis. EY can confirm or deny when DOT asks. Latter is suicidal with notes in record stored by third party (Sabre) with PNR history.

I am hoping that those who have filed with DOT can report back any official statements from EY.
I myself have not called or received any communications from EY other than my confirmation email from PL.

I strongly believe they cannot go that low. But if they do that, then they will definitely make it in the news, in not such great way. That's for sure.

yeah... My wife has already said that she wants me to cancel
She was excited about the idea but she said she would prefer flying Y rather than having someone look at her like a thief for 15 hours.I have negotiated to wait another month, just to see how the situation develops

It would be good PR if they handle this well but from what's going on, it would just seem otherwise.
However, I believe nothing is final yet so fingers crossed.
Any news on the 9W operated 77W EY103?

I don't think there's been any word from EY or 9W since the FAA downgraded India to Category 2.
Despite that Category 2 status, it's still possible we'll see 9W metal on EY102/EY103. Other airlines have used similar wet leases to circumvent Category 2 restrictions before: http://www.philstar.com/business/201...-skirt-faa-ban
