I had various discussion with Lifemiles (Spanish Hotline) about it. They agreed that if the look for the flight individually there is space however they can't book anything manually. Basically they were telling me that they only see what I see on lifemiles.com and that that's it. Any experience how to break this stupid rule? I'm not looking for a Stopover, I just don't have any other choice. Is the English hotline more comprehensive?
You can book what you see in the engine, same applies for the agents. You can't break this rule. It is stupid, but...
Have you tried playing with the departure time? The thing is so buggy, you never know what is going to spill out.
