Singapore Airlines pricing error

SQ has learned a lot from the Singapore government. Charging premium prices for mediocre services. Well done!

 

BUT too bad it is not a monopoly like the government, and will definitely push more customers to other cheaper (and just as good) airlines.

 

Personally I have not use SQ for my vacations for last several years. I don't like to be a carrot.

Fly them for company get the air miles and then use it to go holiday free.

 

I got a lot of points telling my company I needed to go Oz and NZ.

When booking my tokyo tickets recently, I found the JAL system of booking tickets easier to find the right permutation when selecting dates/departures vs different price for each flight/departure day.

 
SQ and ANA one all bit confusing although i guess it's meant to be more flexible.

Uh. Skimmed thru the article. All the so called improvement is for their first class and biz class. For economy, they added more seats (means the space became smaller leh).

 

So shittier seats and higher prices for economy class.

Tax Economy Lite class for the benefit of Business and suites! Good move SIA! [thumbsdown]

i just fly based on flight timings usually. Anyway past 4 hrs, i would prefer full service airlines.

 

 

lol yeah. first world problem.

 

The problem with the SQ website is that it shows the price for that day (based on the cheapest and least popular flight), but once u select the dates already, then u find that the timings are all the weird ass ones and the good timing one is sold out.

Then u have to go back and restart.

I agree with you.

 

It used to be good and then they charged the system.

Normally, SQ only do these things for flights originating from Singapore.  When you do the opposite, usually cheaper. Try.

 

cuz there are still a number of singaporeans who don't bother to do price comparison and just book direct on SIA

Next time just book from skyscanner some travel website doesnt have booking charge for cc

many skyscanner agents all tom dick n harry, located overseas.

difficult to contact them when u have any issue.

can use their prices (skyscanner) as a guide and book directly with the Airlines website.

 

If Skyscanner can offer, you should be able to get the same prices in singapore.

I am quoting base on airfares departing (starting) from Singapore.
