If you read
onlysuites' post #20 in this thread, you can find this text in the fare rules
Code:
STOPOVERS," UNLIMITED FREE STOPOVERS PERMITTED ON THE PRICING
UNIT.
HIP/MILEAGE EXCEPTIONS," NO HIP OR MILEAGE EXCEPTIONS APPLY.
Which means, you CAN take unlimited stopover, BUT there will be HIP Check.
In this case, the price will go up to Manila-London level (2.448 USD excl. taxes) and eventually repricing of Denpasar-London fare, which means the price will be 3.665 USD excl. taxes.
So my advise is, DO NOT CALL THE AIRLINE and do not try to over-optimize your trip when you book/have booked an error fare.
