No, this one is a DIF problem, as 5 minutes on the usual tools confirms.
It's the same two solutions as always:-
- Book the cash ticket online, phone up immediately to UuA. Cancel the cash ticket under the cooling-off provision if the UuA fails.
- Phone up to book the entire thing in one transaction. Agents know about the DIF problem and you won't be charged the offline fee.
