contents Let $k$ be a number field and let $π\colon X \rightarrow\mathbb{P}_k^1$ be a smooth conic bundle. We show that if $X/k$ has four geometric singular fibers and either $X(\mathbb{A}_k)\neq \emptyset$ or $X/k$ has non-trivial Brauer group, then $X$ satisfies the Hasse principle over any even degree extension $L/k$. Furthermore for arbitrary $X$ we show that, conditional on Schinzel's hypothesis, $X$ satisfies the Hasse principle over all but finitely many quadratic extensions of $k$. We prove these results by showing the Brauer-Manin obstruction vanishes and then apply fibration method results of Colliot-Thélène, following Colliot-Thélène and Sansuc.
