hrmm ppl i jus went to visit a few travel agencies today. and i'm telling u u shd always hunt around a few to compare prices. first one i went, i was told by the person who recommended, they had competitive pricing.
$870 sure enough was cheaper than $890 the previous one i went 2 weeks ago.
next, along the same row of shops, we saw a cardboard cutout of the Singapore Girl from SIA so we thought, wth just try our luck and went in to ask. $850. @#$% even cheaper! apparently this Travel Media claims they are the distributor for SIA air tickets to other travel agencies hence they have more competitive prices. and according to their website they just started opening up to walk-in bookings. previously they only dealt in corporate customers. haha the guy serving us told us they had the partition behind a door in that shop that deals with corporate ticketing and guess what he said the price was for those tickets? first class & business class? $12k onwards!?!
=_= right. $850 was satisfactory enough. but of course we headed to one last stop elsewhere. but ladida this place was charging $900 for the same ticket. wtf?! so i just asked a few patronising questions and scooted off.
SIA has a list of travelling agencies who provide ticketting for their flights. i suppose it's wise to go through the list and pick whichever is your favourite. but not all agencies provide student air fare pricing.
