Default Booked flights! OMG this is now very real
I booked our flights this morning with Singapore Airlines from Manchester to Perth. I've not been so nervous for ages. It brought home just how real and how close we were to a huge change in our lives.

Now we've done it though, we're buzzin'!

Thanks to Irishbloo for recommending FlightCentre. They were excellent and got us a great price for flights and hotel in Singapore. Flight was £477 all in.

All the very best to you! We flew with singapore last year and they were great my tv did not work so they gave me a load of vouchers to spend on the plane.What we bought out of them would have come to nearly £200! And that was on the 1st flight so i slept most the way as we left london at 10pm so i did not need the tv anyway!!!!!

I know what you mean - we booked our flights a few days ago - I still can't believe we are actually going now.

Also, they do great stop-over deals with many hotels if you're interested. We got 4 nights in the marina mandarin hotel http://www.marina-mandarin.com.sg/ for £300 total (2 people). Includes brekkie, transfers and lots of other stuff.
