What’s the first 3 digits of ETKT? That will tell you who “owns” the ticket.

I’d start with LX, since they likely now control your ticket.

That’s LX. Call and don’t mention previous phone call, just that you have a booking you want to change.

AC is 014.
UA is 016.

No dice. Need to make new reservation per LX. Gonna try UA and if I have time I will HUCA.

Am i also entitled to EU or Israeli comp? Arriving 12 hours after originally scheduled Before they reaccomodated on UA direct, first leg was rebooked as JFK-KEF-ZRH adding an extra stop that left an hour earlier and arrived 2 hours later in ZRH.
