Booking Etihad flight using a Discover card

Anyone have a problem paying with a Discover card on Etihad's US website in the past?

On the payment page I select Diners Club as payment type (Discover's international network), but keep getting error processing payment -- called Discover to have them unblock the card for international use and they said that they didn't see anything pending so problem wasn't on their end

Prefer to use Discover due to 0%, but I can switch to a different card if Etihad has problems accepting Discover

No disrespect, but I have never heard of Discover being used outside the US...

Accepted where you see these logos:
Discover
Diners Club International
JCB (Japan Only)
China Union Pay (Mainland China Only)
PULSE (ATM Only)
Link (UK Only)

Ended up using a Visa CC to book the tickets -- either the problem is on Etihad's end (glitchy website from recent system upgrade) or with the payment processor they use
