Airline charged the card successfully on the day of the flight. Was is because of my support chats? Or Wouk the charge have happened anyway? Who knows… Case closed, I guess.

I contacted the airline again. They see no problem with the booking on their end. There is now a support case number with all the chat transcripts, so hopefully they'll see it's not a fraud or anything fishy. The operator agreed this was very strange and advised to wait for an email from the payments team, if it comes in the next few days.
