However the hk to sin is quite expensive, 110sgd
total is about 179sgd
need add in admin fees 6axs per transaction

checked in luggage is about 30+sgd for 20kg

if you are someone who really need checked in luggage

sigh....... rate is cheaper now.

depends on the supply and demand
the dates and timing plays a role too
hence, you might find booking earlier might be more expensive than booking one month in advance, sometimes ...

sq frequent adv.fare low but when site the price difference

You need to make sure you fulfill the T&C, and also only flights for certain timings (even if same day) will warrant different price. Choose a popular timing flight and you'll find that the price jumps. The cheap sale fare is usually some afternoon or even evening flight.

Ya, most regular airlines are doing this now. So it depends on whether you choose one extra night of accommodation for cheaper airticket (good for those who go for nightlife, actually), or more expensive air ticket but save on one extra night of accommodation.

Some regular airlines won't allow you to choose seats if you are buying their promo tickets. So far SQ still allows for seat choice upon booking even with promo fares.. hopefully they will continue with this. =/

Since last year, cathay dont allow choosing of seats
choosing of seats for economy , can only choose 48 hours before departure
by the time you choose, most seats taken, cox people with higher tier membership get to choose first :)

Finnair many donkey years ago don't allow choosing of seats for promo fares liao. But at least travellers have the option to buy the seat if they dowan to wait till 48hrs before departure. Cathay is.. you got money want to pay for seat oso don't have the option. :s13:
