Hi, I held two one ways today stupidly instead of a roundtrip on US in J using AA miles. i need to add a lap infant and it is >$500 more to do it as two one ways! i should have thought of this but i was in a rush.

they cant join the pnrs and there is no more availability on either of my flights to add on to the other one way.

i read on a flyertalk thread that it is theoretically possible to put the infant on a third PNR and link it to the two one ways but no agent is willing to do it for me on the phone.

i tried twitter too and they said they cant help.

does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks for your help

mine was open jaw so maybe yours will be better priced...the one way PHL-Europe was around 7000 for the adult tik so it brought the price up a lot (10% = 700)

Even if someone did, it's no longer going back into award inventory now that they plugged it up.
+1 just took of hold on 2 seats and it didn't come back to inventory

I was told by a AA rep that they have 2 bassinets in row 1  on a 1st first come first serve basis

In the center or on the sides? As in one bassinet with single seats or two with the double seats.

Also what is first come? First to request on the phone, first to show up to the airport, first to the gate, first on the plane?

so i made a reservation for a TLV-PHL with AA, and it was ticketed yesterday. Now, an hour ago, i get the following message from AA for that record locator AA:

"We were unable to process your flight reservation request. To ensure that your trip plans aren't interrupted, contact American at 800-433-7300. Please refer to the above record locator when speaking with a representative"

Any idea what's going on here? i checked AA.com and the reservation still shows as ticketed.
