Im trying to book TLV to NYC with Turkish miles. I see a  star alliance flight on other partners but not on turkish. However when I break up the the 2 legs of the journey. TLV to WAW and WAW to NYC also turkish is showing availability. How come it wont show available when I do as one ticket. and is there anything to do. I called multiple times and they keep repeating the obvious that its not available even after I Give them the flight info and they see it available separately. Anything to do?  I noticed same issue on Air canada aeroplan

Married segment logic
Probably when booked together it bumps the fare class up to a class that isn't available

I flew in December, getting onto the flight to IST someone whispered in my ear free palestine, had no incidents or even dirty looks in IST itself.

A friend of mine that's not the nervous type (A Breslover if that describes him) was there 4 weeks ago, He was shouted at by a few people "free Palestine" and was stared at by many many people, He was the only visible looking jew there....

My dozens of flights were TK metal (booked for myself from my own account). Perhaps they flag specific accounts.

Was talking to a rep to book and was offered a JetBlue flight. Surprised, I checked the website and the flight did show up, but showed no seats available. I then proceeded with booking my intended United flight. Is this a thing (thing means possibility in this case) JetBlue Turkish? Is something brewing?
