When did you speak to trailfinders?
The fare rules have recently changed to allow a lower fare to be sold if you're purchasing in any EU country. |

I spoke to Trailfinders last week after the change was announced. My enquiry was specifically for an AONE3 out of CMB, before taxes and surcharges etc. When they came back with a fare much higher than the ex BKK fare I knew they were not giving me the correct quote and that is when the "policy" emerged. Maybe it's too much bother for them? Unlike Trailfinders who are normally very good.
FYI AA tariffs in Dublin was quite happy to rate my ex-JNB DONE5 for a UK purchase at the South African fare level. |

I've done this a few times with no issues whatsoever. Once I even got LH to only check my luggage as far as the intermediate point.
As has already been mentioned, you only need a plausible excuse, assuming your reservation/ticketing takes you further on. On one occasion, my first grandchild had just been born in London when I was due to pass through LGW. That was genuine, but you can easily have 'virtual' grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc. The recent birth of one's own children in an intermediate point might, however, be considered unusual, and even more so in the case of female pax! |
