Booking agency? Your seat is in the unpressurized cargo hold!

I'm more worried about the airline telling me at the gate that I don't have a seat at all.

Probably too late to cancel and get my money back, and re-book with the airline. Probably no need to, anyway. The worst part (not really) of chronic anxiety is, I can't tell when I'm being reasonably concerned and when I'm being unreasonably anxious.

Come to think of it I never got my $2.3 mil either.

ND, that is an incredibly overbooked day. I hope you get some good sleep at the end of it.

Oh mac. Not on.

Anxiety ramping up to unacceptable. About to melt down.

Could someone more experienced with international travel than I am please talk some sense at me? Either here or FB Messenger, I'd really appreciate it.

When are you leaving, Zen? Is there anything specifically about the trip making you anxious right now?

Zen, were you able to choose a seat? Either way, if you take the record locator, you should be able to go to the actual airline, see your reservation, choose seat if you have not already. That may make you feel better.

I leave Dec 20. It isn't the trip bothering me, it's who I've booked the flight with. I booked through AirFare.com, because the flight was cheaper, but frankly the bad English on the site bothers me, and then I go to FinnAir website and there's a ! that says I have to "provide some advance regulatory information for US Authorities. If you still have not provided the information, you can do it here" and I click on "here" and it takes me to a blank page that says Start Over. The fact that I've ordered a receipt twice and haven't gotten it bothers me too. Like, I've never flown FinnAir, I don't even know if this is their real website.

I'm freaking because I'm afraid I'll get to the airport an hour before my flight and find they have no record of me and I don't have a reservation.

Maybe I should cancel the reservation (I have until midnight to do it without penalty, or so the website says) and re-book through the actual airline. It'll cost more, but I'll get to use the credit card I wanted to use (another story, never mind) and I'll feel more secure.

Anxiety infodump, sorry.

Zen, with that many points of uncertainty, I'd cancel and go with something more confirmable. But I also have your sort of anxiety. It cost me a few hundred dollars on my credit card to cancel my LA trip, but I don't really mind too much for the cessation of anxiety. I just turned on the furnace, and every odd smell and thump has me going "It just blew out" and "Is the house on fire?" I know it's dust in the vents and metal expanding and contracting, but still . . . When there's a miniscule-but-non-zero chance of something happening, my money's on not zero. I've had too many freakish things happen to me to relax. It's why I have professionals look over essential systems.

Oh yeah. Click on Cancel My Trip and the link goes 404. I'm calling them.
