I recently booked a reservation ex-SGN on the Japan Airline's website, all on JL metal, and intend to credit all flights to JL mileage bank (for the purposes of qualifying for JAL global club). Throughout the booking process, JL's website has this odd quirk that apparently one can only be logged in when booking a flight departing from the country of the account's address. i.e. I am based in the US, so I can only log in to JL's American website (I tried other countries, and it was clearly not allowed). And I could only book my reservation on the English version of JL's vietnam website, so could not log in. I entered my JMB number during booking, but reservation still will not show in account.

Has anyone found a way to get a reservation like this to show up in their JMB account? I already triple checked that my name and account number were keyed in correctly.

Thanks in advance.
