Not too bad if that is Return.

Check the airline network where you can get an online quote to see how it compares.

Dear Suni&Jay,

I think the Singapore/KL was about £400 for 2 adults and 1 child but this includes all air taxes - worth checking your prices do include all of this.

We used First Choice - but we got them down after price comparison with Emerald.com and some other web agents, names of which I cannot remember.

When are you travelling? Do you have family in KL/Singapore as well?

(Cath Pacific only travels via Hong Kong, we would of used this however family would of been most disappointed if we didnt pop in with granddaughter)
