Technically, you can't. I gave them the American flight numbers and record locator and they were only able to do it in the admirals club. but even more she did take them i got turned off many times. and thats why they werent take out.
Nicely done. Before I canceled my Elal tickets I tried upgrading the AA leg, but AA refused to upgrade me because I bought the ticket through Elal and not AA.

I know AA won't make changes over the phone, but maybe in the airport?
I'm trying to extened the last leg from LHR to JFK for a month. (till after pesach) perhaps change airports and retun from paris instead of LHR since we want to stay be in paris for pesach.
if its all not possible, what would it take to just drop the last leg? would the bags go to NY?

thanks for any advice.

Not possible, in LHR you can say it's a medican emergency and you need your medicine in your bags ASAP but YMMV

Re EL AL supervisor.
I am not going for a freebee, I had a round trip and did not use one segment, so asked if can use in the future. was told I would only get tax back on unused portion.

Never got the tax back.  tried to write to CS in NY, went after them till I Gave up. BBB contacted them, nothing helped.
No more EL AL for me.

sky, other frum groups also circulated info, not only DDF, so when you see frum people, its hard to know where they got the info...
