Im having the most frustrating time trying to change this booking to an acceptable time.

The only HKT-DOH-LON alternative is now full.
BA is not willing to change to a flight with a connection in Singapore (or anywhere else).

It’s basically a take it or leave it situation (or cancel the entire booking, including the outbound flight), which is crazy.

Annoyingly, the flight which is full leaves only 20 min before our initial flight was supposed to leave. Looks like we were bumped off that flight when it was rescheduled.

I suppose i don’t really have a leg to stand on here, other than paying a change fee and going through Singapore. It does feel massively unfair though. Any ideas on what else is possible more than welcome.
