Booking flights query!!
Reet,went to sisters travel agents
The company they use to book holidays said it will be £2000 for 2 adults 2 kids on A380 with stopover in singapore,but need our passports with visas to book seats?
Now here lies the problem,i aint or i dont want to spend £2000 for flights and not have our seats where we want them?
She phones singapore airlines who where £2100 but again they said you can go online and send passport copies off after!
So she went online and it wants payment before it shows you the plane plan to see what seats are aviable?
Any ideas?
Home now so gonna try and sort it
Oh and quantas wanted £3200!!!

What particular seats are you after? Almost without exception a family of four will be in the middle block with 4 seats across. If so, does it matter where in the aircraft you are as all seats will be the same.
When are you flying? If some time in the future then in all likelihood you'll be ok for what your after.

Re: Booking flights query!!
It has been a couple of years since I flew Singapore, but if I remember correctly you can book seats as soon as you have booked your tickets.
Recently flew Malaysia, and with them you can only book 24hrs ahead online (if its working now) but I was able to book on the phone when I rang with some enquiries about 2 weeks before departure.

We normally book our flights online - once confirmation we go ahead and book our seats with Singapore Airlines. May be worth joining Krisflyer with them as well.
Good luck!

Re: Booking flights query!!
When do you fly?
We are hoping to leave in approx 6 weeks or so but am unable to book the flights until exchange of contracts. I understood what you meant about booking your seats as I have thought the same - I'd hate to book and pay then find we have seats at opposite ends of the aircraft because that's all that is left.
We'll be flying with Singapore too, they are excellent. Join Krisflyer now to start earning your airmiles.

Re: Booking flights query!!
I think (hope someone can confirm) but you only get your points once you've checked in and flown, so you should be fine joining Krisflyer and getting your points!

Re: Booking flights query!!
Yep, That's right. Apply now, just go back online to do it, and your points will be added after you have flown with them. You will be given a membership number and a card will be sent in the post. You will have to do this for each family member if they want to earn points too but def worth doing. Your details will be saved to your membership number so whenever you fly with Singapore again it'll save you faffing about entering all your passport numbers etc again.

Not quite sure what you're after here. How can you book specific seats on a flight unless you buy a ticket for said flight first? No airline I know of lets you see what seats are available before you buy the ticket?
What particular seats are you after? Almost without exception a family of four will be in the middle block with 4 seats across. If so, does it matter where in the aircraft you are as all seats will be the same.
