Ex EU returning flight delays - how do I negotiate?
I’m on an ex EU OSL - LHR - SIN retuning the same way . I have bags so I don’t have a B2B option on the return.

My SIN - LHR - OSL return has a tight connection (65 minutes). QF1 is often late >40 minutes so the chances of missing the connection are high.

When QF1 departs from SIN I’ll know the situation. If it is clear that i’ll miss the connection Qantas are likely to book me on the next flight to OSL. This is no good to me because this will be on the same aircraft as my return positioning flight from OSL and I have bags and can’t do B2B.

Can I insist on leaving the itinerary at LHR, if so, what is the diplomatic language used in these circumstances? Also, will they kick my bags out at LHR?
