Result: Pending. Cleared today 5 months ahead

Friend offered to gift an expiring SHRU, so that was lodged for Mrs TK first. I was unable to lodge mine (as noted above), so called. Agent noted it was being difficult, but 2 hours later it showed as pending on my app. Agent also proactively noted to me that with manual lodgments, they can make a note whether or not the 2 pax are willing to split the PNR if only 1x R class becomes available. We are happy to be split (Mrs TK will go in biz no matter - her turn.)
