Hello all , could someone please explain to me how does this'special fares' works ? Every time they come up it is impossible to book the price 'from' .
I always try to book a date from the travel period of this specials from Melbourne to Singapore but it is impossible.
Example : I get the email the 20th of January , one of the period of the special fare is from the 20th of April , I search for that date fare on the monthly page , $751 is not there , so I click on the next cheapest fare of $753 , once I click ,the fare becomes $943 ! On every other date of other months of this special fares period you'll never get this 'from fares' .Every time they do this promotions is the same thing , is this a sort of 'bait' ? I find it a complete waste of time and very misleading ! Qantas also does this specials right now Melbourne to Singapore for $679 , and is it available to book at this price.
I called SIA yesterday and I ask for an explanation , the person who answer didn't know what to answer so he went to ask somebody else and he was told : this special fares are : 'first come first serve' . Really?? In 10 minutes all of this flights are sold out ?? Not even a U2 concert get sold out that quick !
What a joke!
Thanks
