Yep, don't know if the reason was that I used an agent and not directly AB. Even though I did get the AB file locator and it stated confirmed on their site.

Interesting. Out of curiosity, which OTA did you use?

I used travelfinder.se, which is a swedish OTA.

Edit: My guess is that my mistake was to book through OTA and not directly. Even though it said confirmed on OTAs & ABs site. I'll update tomorrow after contacting the OTA.

Good Morning - just an FYI, still is pricing out at €140.

However noticed that running it via momondo.com prices out at these rates while .nl prices at ~€400

Who cares about a record locator? That's just an internal reservation system thing, same with flights showing as confirmed; that's just saying that you've got a confirmed reservation, not a confirmed ticket. So they probably ceased issuing ticket-numbers on OTA bookings when they found out.

Looks like it reprices on sky-tours.

Lesson learned, if it looks like fare error don't use OTA

At least I got it refunded already.

I booked through AB directly, then noticed that an OTA had the same itin for $20 cheaper pp. Canceled the AB booking and kept the OTA booking. The OTA booking is still intact.

The answer is sometimes yes, sometimes no. But for further information about mistake fares generally, please do not post in this thread. There is a helpful search function on the site.
