Flights & Bargains
 
If We Were To Wait Till The Last Minute To Book Our Flights With Singapore Airlines, How Long Would You Wait. Were Looking Around The Dates Of 15th February The Price At The Minute For 2 Adults And 1 Child Is £1.313.90 One Way, To Perth Would You Book Them Now Or Leave A Few More Days? Do They Come Down In Price? Any Cheaper, This 1 We Seen On The Above Dates Was A 20 Hours & 35 Minutes Flight Cheers For Any Replies.

Have you tried flightcentre 0800 58 700 58. They beat any price we were quoted and will hold the flight for 12 days for you and it wont cost a penny. I have done this, the man I spoke to was very helpful and emailed the flight info to me.

Try to book as early as possible and look out for 'seat sales'.
When the flights are released, there are a certain number of seats at a discount rate, once they are gone, the price goes up and so on until all the seats are full. Think about it, someone needing to fly at the very last minute will probably pay anything to get on the plane.

There was a seat sale on Christmas Eve and I bought two return tickets Birmingham to Perth for 450 pounds, that's flying with Emirates and includes the airport taxes etc. I will be looking to buy two more for later in the year very soon, the cheap price = a free flight at the standars price, if you see what I mean.

What is their website? Do you get an instant quote? or is it one that 'gets back to you' (not) going for a look now.....
