AA's new policy
If your ticket price went down on the same routing AA would credit/voucher you for the difference. No more. Now they will charge you 100.00 to do so, so your fare needs to go way way down to make it worthwhile. Expect other airlines to follow.

The new policy affects tickets issued on or after Nov 4.If your ticket was issued prior,then the old rules apply.And, this is for domestic tickets only.The new rule will begin affecting US-Canada tickets on Dec 19.Yes, soon, the free rollover will be a relic.

mjz....I got this info from an email from my TA......Since the only reference to international tickets is as followsquot;Rollovers for international itineraries can be refunded to original form of payment only as previously"..So that part hasnt changed.With a domestic ticket I have always received a "voucher" for future travel, which the TA keeps on file on my behalf.For international tickets, the difference has always been credited to my ever bulging credit card.I hope this helps....

P_M......I talked with a fellow traveller last week..He said he had heard Ryanair will soon take off the biffies and replace them with seats!!The CEO of Ryanair has said that he would charge for ice if he thought he could get away with it...

I keep expecting them to come up with a deeply discounted T fare that would entitle you to sit in the lavatory during take-off, landing, and turbulence, but you would have to stand in the aisle the rest of the time.

LOL!! I have never flown Ryanair, but if I do, I will buy some Depends so I can take care of business on the spot. I think I would have to pass on that discounted T-fare, clevelandbrown, although it would beat some other options they might come up with, such as seating in the cargo hold. We'd better stop now before some airline executive reads this and starts getting ideas....

My parents recently flew Aer Lingus AMS-DUB, and my mom was wondering why the FA was still standing there after serving them tea. Turned out drinks, and I'm talking about non-alcoholic ones, cost 1 Euro a piece. My parents did have euros with them, but had to dig them out from their luggage.
So, don't be surprised at any way an airline will charge you these days.
