Codeshare question

[Skyring]

I'm flying to and from Helsinki next year, booked on the Finnair app (I'm returning to a different Oz city and the webpage couldn't handle that, apparently). Flights to and from SIN (one on a Finnair wetlease) have QF numbers and flights SIN-HEL-SIN are AY. How can I swap those same flights to QF codeshares?

Someone suggested cancelling and rebooking on Qantas but I checked and that's an extra $8K!

Finnair operate the flight between HEL and SIN, they're not likely to sell you a codeshare on a flight they operate themselves. The only way would be to book through Qantas.

Pretty sure QF doesn’t sell the codeshare unless it’s booked as a trip from/to Oz ie all one ticket.

You can't swap through AY. You'd need to book with QF direct to get the QF flight numbers.

No way to change to the QF code without booking through QF.
