Was poking around the app today while bored and noticed that my award SEA-DXB booking in May is showing "Partially Confirmed" due to the DOH-DXB flights having been shifted by half an hour at some point in the last few weeks, and I'm given the option of changing flights, requesting a refund, or accepting the changes. I couldn't actually see a change flights button in the app, so I went on my laptop to find the same message, but there is a "Change Flights" button there... except it returns a 400 Error: "Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."

I suppose I will phone in, but before I do I'd just like to know if anyone knows what I'm likely to be offered? I would love to add another night or two in DXB on either end of the trip, and have kept an eye to see if award space opens up to do so, but it doesn't seem likely. If prior experiences show that I might be able to get my flight shifted by a day or two due to this tiny change, I'll get to work confirming the rest of the trip logistics so that I can be ready to accept new flights when I do phone in.

I did find it interesting that I did not receive any notification of this change. Booking is an award booking with QR directly, no 3rd party or anything, and no issues getting flight confirmation emails or anything like that.
