Otherwise I guess you have to wait until you see which flight to OSL you get booked on and then buy a single to come back with whoever is most convenient.
I was in a "naughty" mood and was going to try it.... the thought in my head was that if there is a missed connection then I should have the right to decide when the replacement flight takes place. My argument would be that the purpose of my flight to Oslo was to make another connection... irrespective of where that connection takes me. I was thinking that I could say that the purpose of my Oslo trip is now lost and I would like to take it later in the year please!
