Does anyone have experience in this particular fare?
Fare rules state 2 stopovers allowed in Australia and 2 in UK/Europe...(doesn't mention anything about sectors)
HKG qf BNE qf SYD ba LHR / LGW ba MRS ba LGW / LHR ba HKG
Doing minimum transit in London both ways, only stopover in UK/Europe is Marseille. In the Australian portion, main stopover in SYD, but routing through BNE for a quick stop "home" (although only have time for <24hrs in BNE, so technically this is a transit?)
Agent here says they have to add on for LGW-MRS return and BNE-SYD....is this correct??? All help greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.
Your TA would have contacted QF in HKG, and most likely this is what QF says, then its what it is. Why don't you call QF or BA in HKG (both in sameoffice) to find out if there is such a fare out of HKG.. and then give info to your TA.
