Booking flights

[Nicky]

i used travelmood (on web site) for my tickets i went business class its worth the money and deff the leg room seats lay flat 6 foot long , dont forget its a long flight and its the best night sleep i had on a plane any way the price was £7100 they got it down to £6500 for two adults and child and infant
with business class you get to use the lounges in heathrow and singapore which are very nice relaxed and kids are welcome it may seem a lot of money but its a new life and a new start for you and family thats how i saw it

I totally agree with you it is a new start and yes, great to have all the benefits of flying business class. But OMG!! I just looked at the fares. £5000/adult and with 3 adults (my eldest daughter will be 12 by a couple of months can you believe so will be classed as an adult) and 2 child fares, well I haven't even bothered to work out just what that amounts to. So I looked at the economy fares instead, still with singaporeair and they were about £3,800. More like it. However my local travel agent who apparently specialise in Australia quoted about £2,800 with Malaysian Airlines. Has anyone had any good/bad experience with them? Initially I thought what a good price but after reading everyone's comments about travel agents being more expensive than going direct I'm wondering how the travel agent I used managed to get such a low price. I can't help but ask what's the catch? Should I be wary?

Hi - We too were wondering about Malaysian Airlines as have been to Singapore before, and even though absolutley loved it, was hoping to stop off in Kuala Lumpar for a few days. Would be very interested to hear if anyone's done a stop-over in Malaysia - and their experiences of Malaysian Airlines too.

Thank you! x

Hi
We flew with Malaysian airways last year. They were lovely nothing too much trouble. Even when there was a fight on the plane there were so many male stewards in total control at all times. Food was good..well as good as it gets on a plane..certainly was edible..
Had game consoles in the seats and you could control when you watched the films etc. drinks were plentiful. KL airport clean and spacious. a few shops to look in. When we visited they were having a celebration 50 years of flying I think ..so they had music and dancers to entertain us all and food to try. So I was OK to go back to Oz this year with them. However OH found a slightly cheaper flight with Singapore airways. so looking forward to the 6 hours wait there!!??

Thanks very much, will hunt around when it's time to book. The cheaper airfare will probably win hands down!

It's a while ago that we did it, but when we booked ours we used a company called Lees Travel (www.leestravel.com) who were actually able to beat the price of booking direct with Singapore Airlines.
