Just wanted to get that off my chest.

I am taking two friends on a whirlwind tour of the US BCN-AMS-MSP(don't ask)-LAS-SEA-AMS-BCN. I actually managed to get a decent though not amazing fare from Expedia of around $1100. Of course, it can only be purchased with a US credit card which I no longer have.

No problem, I think. The flights are all KL codeshares on NW metal so I'll just go to KLM.com and book it there.

As if.

I managed to get the first flight, which arrives into AMS at 1300. When I select the next flight (KL6055), the web site gives me the finger and tells me that departures aren't allowed before 20:20. ...? I suppose I could call them but an educated guess based on information in this forum tells me that is liable to exacerbate the problem.

These people really just cannot manage. I honestly wonder how they ever get a plane off the ground.

OK, rant over. We can now return to our regular *****ing about prison matrons, idiots on the telephone, and disappearing lounges.
