I've just finished up a fairly unhelpful call to Qantas regarding some rebooking for flights on Malev.
As part of a OneWorld award, I was due to fly CDG-BUD-SKP and then SKP-BUD. With the closure of Malev, these flights are obviously not going to be happening.
Unfortunatley, SKP is one of the ports that OneWorld now doesn't service.
I spoke with someone from Premium (after being disconnected and not called back an hour or so earlier :-|) and was told all they can do is:
1) Remove the MA sectors from the ticket and I can "get my own way there"
2) Change destinations, however only using award availability (which is virtually none given we're within a few months of departure).
I was under the impression that the ticketing airline was responsible for getting you to your destination? I know it's not QF's fault that MA have folded... although it's not mine either.
I'm not overly impressed that my options have been limited to cancelling the sectors or just rebooking using other award classes only (the least they could do is allow booking into other classes).
Am I being too sensitive, or does it seem a bit inadequate?
