Not sure if I should have posted in the One World Thread so apologies but not strictly a OWE Award - I have a booking from Melbourne to Manchester via HK next year and then a few weeks later onwards to Washington and home via LA (all J Class) 280k points but really only 4 stops.

Did not fancy the 9 hour layover in HK on the way out so found some Emirates flights that would suit...called and asked for the associated costs of changing to MEL - SIN stop over for one night and then SIN/DXB/MAN balance of flights from Manchester to Washington and then LA left in tact.

CSR took 40 minutes as had to go back and keep re calculating and came up with a final cost of an extra $793.86 tax originally said it was $900 ( I have already paid 2500.00) plus 28,000 points (presume this is the 5K per person change and a bit more) I did not proceed until I can check this out with you all...any help appreciated and maybe I can then go back with an easier mind and book if those costs are correct TIA
