I booked for China airlines before. As long as passport detail is same when buying on trip.com, it will auto reflect on the airline app.

they book from outside SG, so due to market pricing difference and exchange rates, it might be cheaper

I booked SG-BKK-SG, when I log in to manage my booking I see the ticket was paid for by Trip.com in a foregn currency, forgot whether it was CNY or HKD

yes same steps, just check the ticket that trip issued is correct on the airline website beforehand

trip is the best 3rd party site for me, usually issues tickets very fast and no problems

I always book with Agoda and Trip.com. Agoda always cheaper but Trip.com have much better service and user interface. sometimes even auto check in for you. don't worry about it.

your $2k is for how many pax sia. go bkk 2k...

Yup, use another country's ticket stock. The agency can even have own mark up on this lower price to earn extra

I did price comparison before agoda always end up cheaper than trip.com for flights for me. But the prices keep fluctuating by the hour really have to stalk the app for best pricing.
Yes, I have to agree with you on that.
Have booked flights from agoda before, because it is around 10+ cheaper than trip app, for a trip from malaysia back to singapore ...

Trip app prices for scoot usually more expensive generally .
