check out a NW ticket for the NW segments and a SQ ticket for the SQ legs
SQ and NW are not alliance partners (SQ doesn't belong to skyteam) and they don't codeshare or market flights through each other, so the combined trip might be built on two roundtrips withins one itinerary, by that I mean NW treats the NW segments as one trip and adds the SQ as a separate trip -- all in one ticket.
The SQ legs might be priced as one way tickets since they are not codeshare.
You might have done better with the fare by
buying the NW segment from NW and the
SQ segments directly from SQ.
Can you price it as two separate tickets and report back to us what the fare would be?

Here's the history. M-class fares on NW maps to a corresponding E-class on SQ. Q-class on NW corresponds to K-class on SQ. My outbound NW flights are M-class from the US and will connect to E-class on SQ. The return has K-class on SQ connecting to Q-class on NW back to the USA. M/E-fares are more expensive than Q/K-fares.
The flights up to the first SQ segment have been completed in M-class. Since the K-class on SQ is cleared, can the rate desk calculate retroactively and place me back on Q-class? I stand to loose about US$300. Should I press my luck?
