ATL, BOS, IAD & ORD all have promo awards for 15K to Europe.
Stacks great with the Chase transfer bonus.

Cross posting from infant thread

Booking a delta flight on flying blue. Trying to book infant a seat, and gives full price for ticket. But says on final page an infant will not be given a seat and has to be held in lap… but they want to charge for a full ticket? I saw on TPG that they wont issue tickets for infants. But they allow me to pay for them to have a ticket that they wont issue?

1) is this true that they wont get a seat?

2) can i put the age as 2 years old so that i can get a seat and call to change the age?

I already transferred in the points, you think i have a chance getting chase to refund if i show them that they charge the full rate for a seat and then only at the final page says they wont have a seat even though they allow me to pay for the infant?

I have a award ticked booked with FB on a Delta JFK-TLV 11:50pm Sat night flight, Delta changed their flight Sced to 350pm (on Shabbat) which i Obv cant take, I have spoken to both FB and DL, there's availability on Delta for the Sunday afternoon flight but that's not open for FB, anf FB says only delta can make the change being that they made the sced change and its only open on DL.
DL claims that its a milage ticket booked by a partner and therefore they cannot touch the ticket even they there was a sced change and there's availability from their end.
Is it a pointless fight and i should just cancel or is there anyway DL would change the ticket for me?

Delta can and should rebook you, as this is their own schedule change. You need to speak to the right agent -HUCA.

Same issue
The delta rep was nice enough and told me she will try to put it through, but it came back as a error and she claimed it can't be bypassed
But rep claimed that AF owns ticket until 2 weeks before flight and they can't touch it, once it's within 2 weeks the delta rep could rebook...

That should not be the case where there is a irregularity such as a major schedule change.

HUCA the airline, not DDF.

Not sure what you are getting at
Until departure control begins it it the fault of the ticket issuing airline
If the space doesn't exist it doesn't exist
If Delta is willing to open the space  patch them into the same email/phone call
This is always a risk when booking partner

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Friend booked a ticket with his own account on KLM metal from JFK, card was charged, points debited, and had a 13 digit ticket number. When he tried to check in online the system said check in only available in the airport, when he arrived at the check in desk they couldn't find his ticket and after showing them the booking, they said sorry the ticket was void and did not allow him on the flight.

Anyone have any idea what could've caused this?

Can one book an award flight on KLM for another passenger if he ( the account holder)  isn't flying?

Did airfrance website take away ability to see availability a month at a time by leaving the date blank? Not showing up for me anymore...

I am having issues booking on air france, I get the following auto-cancelation email 5 min after booking:

This is an automatic email. Do not reply

The information you have provided for your booking reference ****** does not allow us to maintain the issue of this booking. The travel documents have been cancelled.

In case any amount has been debited from the credit card, it will be fully reversed.

Air France payment control

I have gotten this email after 1) trying legit award booking from my own account and with my own credit card (fairly new account). 2) Cash ticket from my wife's account (used the same credit card as first booking). 3) Cash ticket from a friend's account (old account, different credit card).

All of them were for the account holder flying on the ticket, the only common thread is my computers IP address. when I call Air France they say I can only book these tickets with an agent at the airport. I have seen online some people claiming it has to do with never flying on AF or crediting any miles to FB, but why would they do that when I buy revenue tickets??

Would love to get some thoughts or anyone's experience on this
