This ticket was never delivered in a timely manner. So, I lost my trip and I had no chance to use the insurance associated with this trip.
After a long dispute EXPEDIA reimbursed me 800 U$D and my credit credit card could only reimbursed me 429.96 U$D.
THAT MEANS THAT EXPEDIA STOLE from my credit card 59.99 U$D for a service that was never provided.
Recent update: after a long dispute with my credit card. VISA forced EXPEDIA to reimburse me that 59.99 U$D that EXPEDIA attempted to steal from my credit card.
Lesson : Check how EXPEDIA charge you credit card. EXPEDIA might "mistakenly" keep money.
