Merging two award bookings
Hello,
I booked two different award tickets on QR NRT-DOH, DOH-FRA at different times due to lack of availability. Can I merge them into a single ticket?
Best,
Bil

For info QR will interline bags on separate tickets.

I am under the impression that having a single ticket to your destination wouldn't be harmful in case of IRROPS/delays/tight connections.
Thanks for the info, I asked that question in the QR forum in the link you posted, where I hope it belongs.

If DOH-FRA alone comes up again, you could try asking the agent to amend your initial booking NRT-DOH to add this in, then cancel the original DOH-FRA, but I suspect they may decline to do this.

Not only would it not be harmful, it would be downright essential for IRROPS and connection protection, but you can't have this on separate bookings, and separate bookings cannot be combined into a single ticket.
