Default Singapore Airline holiday stopover thingy...

...states that one night's accomodation is included but when I bring up the price for three nights in a hotel, it's charging me for three nights. Am I being dim or shouldn't I only be paying for 2 nights??

No idea as never used them for hotels but I would advise shopping around and comparing prices, regardless. Start with asiarooms.com or wego.com

Hi

It's probably a glitch as I guess the one nights free stop-over is a special offer. You may have to ring them.

As Seasider says shop around and also sometimes I've found the hotel deals direct can be better, but sometimes not! I actually booked our stop-over for the way back from the UK through UK based Travel Republic website last year and it was the cheapest around for the hotel I wanted.

So a few more hours on the internet should get you a deal ...

Try the Zuji Singapore website. They have some great specials on at the moment.

Awesome, thanks everyone! I did a quick search yesterday and found nicer hotels for less than Singapore were offering so I reckon it's not such a bargain after all...

Just for your info, if you book your stopover via the airline as a "package" then you are covered regarding any delays or "ash clouds" etc. It is there responsbility then to look after you. If you book accommodation indepently then your on your own.

Not a major issue but just thought i would point it out.
