I am booking flights Melbourne - Copenhagen return for February next year in business. I couldn't see saver award availability for a short transit time, so I thought I would add a stopover in Singapore. Then I saw that I could make that stopover just 2.5 hours. Are there any problems anyone can see with me going down this route? We will have carry-on only.
Thanks
Jenny
 
I can't see any issue. It's funny how the system doesn't permit the option you found in the first place without needing to "trick" it with a stopover.

Remember that you only get one stopover for the entire return trip, viz. choose to put it in your inbound or outbound, but not both.
 
Thanks! It is funny - the system actually offers you flights that depart before you arrive!
I didn't notice that before. I'd be double checking the flight dates carefully.
 
Here is a screen shot of what I mean - the flight from Copenhagen arrives at 7:30 am, but the system is offering me flights that depart at 00:25 am and 7:45am on the same day.
Or am I getting things confused?
