We could have got 1 a bit cheaper but with this flight we only wait at Dubai for 2 hours before the next flight.
Got quoted £6120 for the same flight through a travel agent :scared: :scared:

Re: Flights booked!!
I am just looking to book a flight to perth at the moment for 2 adults one way.
Someone warned me that it said over the internet one stop in Dubai but in fact you stop in Singapore as well - have I got this right?
We want to fly from Manchester

Re: Flights booked!!
Did you book with Thomas Cook ?
If so was it over the internet, or at local travel agents
