As for DY tickets, always buy them in batches of 6.

Is there something with six tickets at a time? (I have only bought DY once, RVN-HEL and you might guess why I have not actually flown it...)

Because you couldn't combine it with your trip from Australia to Germany?

Or permutations of that. GOT works too, depends on where the 20€ tickets are.
I am sure you can get a similar pattern from HEL, even though HEL segment will be pricier

I should have done that for my FRA-TXL 747 flight earlier this month. The flight was packed to the rafters though.

You will be bussed to the terminal in TXL,it will be an E arrival. It worked fairly painlessly and quick with the busses. Except getting people from their photo spots to the bus....

Negative. That was too obvious guess. I think he is hinting to: RVN 05OCT15 AY421/428

Last Saturday in the loundge, there were no Fazer Blue's at all. Just the Fazer sign and some seasonal decoration on an otherwise empty table.

In no way whatsoever, except if you're German and grew up on these.
Main ingredients: Gelatin, sugar, glucose syrup, starch, flavoring, food coloring, citric acid

I booked ticket to China with positioning flight from Eurpoe. Now I traveled the first part and my travel plans change. From 2 600 € (class D + I), the changing fee is 3 200 €. So total ticket price is 5 800 €... I don't get it as a new ticket would cost only 3 400 €. somehow tickets are not refundable either anymore.

Any idea what is going on? It is Egencia by the way.

Probably no more I bucket available for your new flight, so they practically sell you a new in D. Still doesn't sound right, as you should be paying the fare difference, not a whole new fare. Is this change fee online or talking to a real person?

Sounds like your I class ticket had a restriction to be not changeable after departure, and they are selling you a one way D class ticket instead. The devil will be in the details of the conditions of your original booking. But my guess is that after first legs flown, remaining fare is "lost" for changes.
