This is confusing. Surely the PDX-SEA shuttle flight would be available on the web site - so why can't they just add it as a segment to the itinerary? Doesn't change the cost in miles (though there would be a little tax to charge, but nominal), so how is this a disallowed change?

(Also, this is a little OT, but what are the chauffeur drive benefits available on an AS-miles-based EK F ticket? Are they identical to paid EK F? We've got an EK F itinerary that has a 24-hour layover in DXB en route, and it would be useful to take advantage of it.)
