In the end I just booked it via the booking tool to get around the agent.

I'm just hoping I don't run into the same thing, especially since I can't get the oneworld booking tool to pick up my other US domestic flights. It just won't show them.
What does that mean, the agent could not get around it—these itineraries are manually priced aren't they?
