Newcomer / Intro Bug (or perhaps I'm just doing it wrong) in Travel Tutorial

I've tried the travel tutorial a few times and each time the same thing happens.

I follow the instructions to get to the destination station, but once I come out of FSD in front of it, I get no further instructions. I was expecting to be asked to request docking permission but that doesn't happen, and when I go to the left hand screen to request it myself it isn't an option. I know that I need to request it because if I then just enter the station I get shot down.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

By the way, if you accidentally deploy your hard-points (as I did the first time) when coming out of the first station in the tutorial then the instructions stop after telling you to clear the mass-lock zone, you get no instructions to enter supercruise or hyperspace to the destination system. You can still do it though, but then again when you get to the destination station, can't request docking permission.
 
You're doing it right, you just need to goto Contacts in the Left UI and select the station from there (as opposed to the Navigation tab)

Edit: And you have to be within 7.5 KM of the station

But if you're a bit further away than that, and getting closer, the request can still go through when you reach 7.5 km if it doesn't time out first.
