However the agent said they can't make a change because MLE-AUH is no longer available for a new ticket (right, I have the only two J seats) so they can't change any other part of the routing if an entirely new ticket isn't available for purchase. I wonder if I added a stopover in AUH would they be able to "fix it" without losing my MLE-AUH segment...

Is this a case of HUCA or is this basically the deal with any tickets involving Ethiad?
