I need to construct a hotel + airfare package to qualify for salary packaging. Finnair are running very good prices ex BKK in J at the moment, but the airfare is not claimable unless it is also booked as a package with the hotel. The Finnair website doesn't allow them to be booked together.
I thought I would try expedia, but the problem is it won't let me book Business Class flights with the hotel only being for PART of the stay (i.e. I want to fly into CPH, stay 5 nights and package that, but then go elsewhere. I'm willing to book those hotels separately but a TA could obviously package everything together.
So it seems the only way to do this is to get a TA in BKK who can issue the ticket at BKK prices (although expedia.com.hk seemed to match the airfare). Could an Australian TA do this?
The Finnair sale expires soon so I need to move fast. Would greatly appreciate any advice.
