ICN-ZAG
Booked what will likely be my final redemption for quite some time this morning:
ICN-PEK Asiana F Class
PEK-VIE Austrian C Class
VIE-ZAG Croatian C Class
Miles: 18,750
Cash: £127.50
Tax: £163.60 (OS have a whopping YQ surcharge)
Call handled by male agent (no name given). There were a few problems, for example being told that the flight VIE-ZAG I wanted was not available but he eventually found it. Then he told me that he would have to charge it as 2 redemptions as I was making a stopover in Z1 on the way to Z2. My stopover was however just an overnight connection which I pointed out and he charged me correct miles but no apology! Total call took 20 minutes.
Was not sure about booking OS biz class on the 767 but it was this or LH so decided to try something new. Their catering is supposed to be good at least.
Worryingly my ICN-PEK flight is showing as "confirming" on flybmi.com, although shows as "Confirmed" on CMT. This leg also shows as Economy on CMT but I'm aware that F class does this for some carriers like OZ and SQ. Fare basis on flybmi.com says O class so I'm ok.
