Ah ok, thanks! I did call QF (South Africa call centre) and they weren’t able to add the JL flight I found. They said they’re going to try to get JL to change it…I’m not very optimistic about it.
Will keep trying QF until I get through to Hobart
All 3 JL flight departure times on my booking have changed also and I won't be able to make a (JL) connection. I can see a "phantom" booking that would fit my itinerary and I'm tempted to just book it and (hopefully) merge it with my existing booking.
Has anyone attempted this before? Not sure...
I should add that I'm booking the first legs now to lock them in and will add to create the OWA booking later on.
I found alternative flights via Tokyo (MEL-NRT-FRA) and taxes were only $281 for 2 PAX.
I haven't booked a OWA for some time but was referring to the wiki for reference carrier...
Thanks, does this mean in theory if I call up Qantas they should be able to book it for me? Sorry if this has been answered before, it's a bit hard to search for this info in the thread.
I'm trying to book a leg out of Colombo in Jan 2020, e.g. CMB-BKK or CMB-SIN and I'm not getting any results with direct flights. The results I get back are CMB-SIN-BKK or CMB-BKK-SIN, which is frustrating. Has anyone come across this before and/or have any advice on how to overcome this?
