AC doesn’t charge YQ on OS but they may not be able to book.

And returning on this?

I booked a Norwegian flight from Rome to NYC through Chase's ultimate rewards program
And now that my flight has been fully booked I look at my reservation and I need to pay to reserve basic seats for my wife and I and to reserve kosher meals it costs $45 a person this is crazy I would not have book on this airline if I knew about this.
Is there any way to get the kosher meals without paying $45 dollars a person?
Can I get a travel credit back from my amex platinum card for this purchase?

Nice contrast there :)

Yea, I messed that up, I think I was just confusing their problems with booking OS with them not charging YQ, not sure why I made that connection.

They have a problem booking OS? Since when? LO is the issue AFAIK. Still unresolved.
