Is that on the final payment page? I am still getting £591 and the only thing I am not trying is actually paying for it. ![[PREM FARE GONE] FLR-HKG/ICN/NRT-DUS from 770 / J - FlyerTalk Forums (7)](https://i0.wp.com/www.flyertalk.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif "[PREM FARE GONE] FLR-HKG/ICN/NRT-DUS from 770 / J - FlyerTalk Forums (7)")

That is often the order of the day -- as in most common -- but I've had lots of historical luck with AZ on getting the first segment adjusted without triggering a re-pricing. But even with AZ, it can be like playing roulette.

LOL. The old hit 'em with YQ trick when you're having trouble pulling the fare.
Even though you see this...

(I am sure there are a million reasons why this would not work... I am not an expert.)
It wouldn't work as that would mean a reprice at todays rate which is much more.

That has changed in the last 20 minutes then. I still had one page open with the 'old' price.

Ticketed one hour ago on ebookers.de: DUS-FCO-SCL-FCO-FLR-FCO-NRT-FCO-DUS for 1162€. All flights on AZ metal except the first & last ones on AB.
In essence, flying 2 long haul business class trips for 581€ each. Not bad.

Just the cost of the employee time it'll take for AZ to untangle this mess is probably now pretty high.

Which is why I'm amazed they allowed it to run for so long. For all the talk of an intern screwing up, there are some serious failures in identifying extraordinary activity and putting an end to it quickly.
I wonder how they will go ahead and remediate this and how many may slip through...

I lost a segment:
[removed] has been changed to
[removed]
[removed]. Will be interesting to follow. Although it could be time table etc, happened to me on the Viking Fare where AA changed their schedule and the segment disappeared. A few weeks before travel, I called BA and they were happy to change the departure from OSL to ARN(!) and put me on a BA-tatl instead.
