Can you explain the whole ZED thing a little more? I'll be trying to get from Italy to Brazil in March on a ZED fare and it will be my first time using it.
I checked the ZED page on jetnet, but it seemed like I could oly select from a few airlines. There was no help page that I could find. Do I just go to any AA ticket counter, tell them where and when I want to go and pay for it right there? Ir is it all done through jetnet?
