booking AAdv awards on QF

[alect]

Trying to book MEL-SYD-JNB return U award using Aadv on QF.

CHecked on QF for my dates - available.

CHecked on Aa.com - shows up as availble.

When I go to select flights and book it comes back saying The flights you've selected are no longer available - asking me to select others but presenting the very same options I selected.

Is there a bug or something? Any suggestions?

You might need to give them a ring. Explain the issue and see where you get. Personally I find the Australian number (Suva) good but some others will disagree with me on that.

thanks will do.

One more question - if booking a Oceania-Africa award and I want to stop in both JNB and WDH (so MEL-SYD-JNB...JNB-WDH...WDH-JNB-SYD-MEL) and there is a JNB-WDH BA flight, will this be within the AAdv award routing inclusions? Or do I just need to purchase the BA JNB-WDH sectors separately?

Alos, check on Expert Flyer. If U class for the QF flights shoes there, it's generally bookable on AA.com as an award.
