Can anyone advise if this is normal?
Last week I was due to fly SYD-HKG-TPE-HKG-SYD...I flew up on QF & was due to do the HKG-TPE legs with CX. I am a WP FF with QF.
In HK I met up with our company owner who invited me to fly to TPE in his private jet...very nice. I had to make my own way back to HK then SYD.
The day before I was due to leave TPE I rang CX just to confirm my seat back to HK...I did this as my travel agent suggested that I should always do this if I miss a leg of a flight...in this case HGK-TPE.
I was confirmed on the flight....the next day about an hour prior to leaving the hotel in TPE I had a call from CX saying BIG PROBLEMS. AS I did not take the CX flight leg HKG_TPE I was flying out of sequence and both my TPE-HKG & HGK-SYD flights had been cancelled...after much debate I got onto my Australian Travel Agent and let her talk to CX & QF...at the airport CX allowed me to fly to HK as a "good will gesture" but would not issue me with a HK-SYD boarding pass.
By the time I arrived in HK my agent had got through to QF & I was given my HKG-SYD boarding pass without any issue.
The question here is:
Is this normal & if it is, if I am invited on our owners jet again, hopefully I will be, how do I get around this issue of missing a leg and then being out of sequence.
