And who is responsible if I book and miss the connection? Would they pay for a hotel?

Another question would they put me on the 1020pm flight to DFW?

Will SAS check baggage on two separate SAS PNRs to the final destination?

Some relatives are supposed to fly the return leg of their LY TLV-MIA-TLV in Y+ on Wednesday (last flight out), ticket was booked via chase travel portal.
Originally, their return was supposed to be a week before pesach, but I was on the phone with chase last Friday for 3 hours to change it to this Wednesday (they also needed to upgrade to J as nothing else was available)
Chase had said that because the ticket is already used, the ElAl waiver doesn't apply, and charged a change fee per the fare rules.
They have now decided they'd rather stay in Miami at least until after pesach.
If I wait for T-24 for ElAl to get control of the ticket, will they change it for free? (and save me from another 3 hours with chase travel?)

Had a similar issue.
Book a fake ticket for a flight in the next 3 days, so you can speak to a rep. Then cancel within 24h.

got an email on April 13 from gotogate.com that our ticket with El Al on April 12 TLV-JFK has not been canceled yet, when in fact they did not fly at all. and "i need to reply within 48 hours to confirm that i want to cancel the booking"  then the email goes on to say that "the booking needs to be canceled at least 5 days before the original departure date"
what to make of it?????

i did dispute the credit card.

Had a JFK- TLV Flight for Pesach with LOT for 5 tickets(obvs with stopover). Booked through ultimate rewards using 245k points plus $300 and change
Flight was cancelled. Seems like LOT is offering full refund for those who booked direct (my in laws for example) but Chase is telling me its $200 per ticket to get refund. Spoke to 2 managers so far who claim its LOT policy- and not chase.
I can dispute cc charge but that wont help me get points back. Any advise?
