When you call to make things quicker if you have an outward booking already, make sure you select the option

I messed up and selected I want to create a new booking so when I got through to someone and when I explained what I wanted they said sorry call again and pick the other other option... I'll try again tomorrow and see what happens otherwise I might have to cancel my outward flight
