Airline prices we have no control ...
If you think the price is rite, you may go ahead and book
however price might even gets lower closer to that date if there r many seats left ... normally ppl wont risk waiting for last min deals ...

But my experience, within 1 mth, price is higher and time slot may not be good. My company always have to buy last minute ticket, price always on the high side.

By rite is price higher ...
However, have seen before, SQ promo sydney, about 2 weeks later depart, their price is also 598sgd which is their good promo price that time ...
budget airline such as scoot, sometimes can find <200 sgd for within one month travel to taipei, some even within 14 days ... For jetstar, they have the same too, for diff countries ...

Perhaps for bangkok, more popular place, hardly have such things happening.

If you buy earlier a little, can get SQ promotion at 158 like that. But no more liao.

Now all Oct ticket are damn expensive. So don't go if you think expensive loh. Buy Nov ticket.

Same here ... if can choose most would have chosen scoot 787 dreamlinear
compared to jetstar a320, scoot 787 legspace is much wider ...
however, timing not so good. plus they land at dmk, not surnburmi international airport ...

in terms of pricing, scoot price is mostly 98+20 every week on tue promo ..
jetstar promo, on average is 72 to 102 normally ...
Jetstar more timing to choose from ... scoot timing not so good.
hence in the end always have chosen jetstar ...
