Does it make sense that United doubled the price on NYC-LON tickets overnight. Basic economy tickets for June were selling for around $460 until yesterday and today they bare $930?

Yes, pricing can change.

Its about time they realized that people flying (on some routes) are doing so because they need to and mostly disregard the price.
Always praying for delayed baggage.

I had tix on Air Europa for pesach, flights got canceled due to covid. AE is refusing to issue refund, only flight credit. I want to do a charge back, but this was booked thru a ta, and ta is claiming he will ne on the hook for the charge back. Anyone know if this is correct?

Got the follow up email an hour after I posted this. I think I now have enough information to dive in and try to change the credit to a refund.
I just spoke to Chase. It took a while, but they were very polite. They'll send it to their offline team, and I'll eventually get the points back. I'm guessing it will take three months.

i remember seeing reports of them being voided when sold on public marketplaces (like ebay. if i recall correctly ebay even provided detail's to united ) i dont remember if there were other consequences

p.s. @TimT  might be able to find where in the forums it was posted

Thank you.
So I did that and in searching for Frontier 2967 on April 19th
The last flight that flight aware is showing is for April 2nd. Does that mean that all subsequent flights were cancelled?

In the history I see regular flight history until March 26th and then all canceled until April 2nd. But that's all it's showing.

I have AA miles that are expiring soon and wanted to buy a magazine. When I used the link from DDMS, the site doesn't show American as an option. Has AA and MagsforMile ended their relationship?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

You can use the shopping portal to buy something. I believe they paused mileage expiration for now, as well.

on the jetblue cc after spending 50k you get mossaic status, assuming i spend in jan 2021, will i have status till the end of 2021 or the end of 2022 ? [which in theory means i that i only have to spend every second year january and i will have mossaic status for 2 years - besides every second january]
