SQ or CX

Usually for regular airlines, their promo prices would include tax and fuel surcharges liao. Only budget airline will play the fine prints game leh. You chose timings that are not under the promo fare issit?

haha yup, like scoot lor.
always 8 sgd for bkk, 38 sgd for hk one way lol ..
taxes + cc fees abt 100 lol ...

 

[dede1217]

hmmm... the promo shows $308, then i click in to book,
after i've selected the timings, the fare from $271 becomes $371 .....
izzit the $271 havent include tax and surcharge or what?

272 is already including taxes.
haha you r right .. I just now search my nov trip. now becomes 361 liao lol ...

ganasai sia. the first page put $308, i feel still not bad so click in n select dates, then it shows
$271,
then i select under their available timings lor,
i didnt select anything out of the promo,
but it shows $371 at the bottom.

@Joelleyuan: Make sure you don't buy single tickets. Those promotions usually don't apply to one person. It will revert back to the usual pricing if you travel alone. Check the fine print. I once had the same problem and saw the fine print, haha. Cancelled before paying.

hmm, i thot i didnt see the promo terms n
conditions mention "minimum 2 to travel" like
it sometimes do.

let me try again later.

thanks.

if i were to choose upper deck , will it take very long to embark and disembark ?

 

[initialD]

Does not matter upper deck or lower deck.

Disembarking will not take as long as the wait for the luggage to arrive anyway, unless you not flying economy or have gold status and above..LOL

 

[luv_boa]

understood, i change to upper deck liao. haha but weird no 1 took the middle 4 seats at the last row near the stairs

I not flying taiwan haha ... planning hk lol ...

I took upper deck from SIN-HKG in Oct2015. At least not so crowded when boarding.
Last but not least, there are more crews at the lower deck though.
If you requires more special attention, do take the lower deck.

To be honest, more air-crews prefer to fly their normal planes than on A380, as most of the time A380 has more technical issues due to it being a new aircraft, and it is seriously so much heavier.

For you, i can spare my 2 cents.

 

[calkel20]

Behind that row it is where the cabin crew prepares the meals and washrooms area. Also where the lower deck crew comes up and chitchat away.

Slightly rowdier.

After my latest fiasco with CX just last week from HKG-SIN, I'm more inclined towards SQ.
