    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    There is a point to which airlines can cut reward seat availability and have no impact on the business model... It's a balancing point which they try to manage as all businesses do-maximizing profit whilst minimizing customer dissatisfaction. I like many acquire credit cards and have loyalty...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    Rubbish, you would have no more certainty of a waitlist clearing 1 day out than you would 2 weeks out. Airlines make money ( a lot..) by selling credit card companies points. People sign up with credit card companies to get points. If seats are largely unavailable the value of points become...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    I've done this is the past and it isn't worth the headache of arguing with a check in agent who refuses to do this. Yes I have had times where this has happened and I have had to collect my bags and re check in...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    I thought my suggestion was quite clear and logical-keep the process as is, people still have to buy a ticket or take a wait list. But then 1 day out if they haven't sold the fares then they should look at clearing waitlists...How many people do you think are going to hedge their whole trip on a...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    I thought chasers were a big no no now? When you call they have a pre recording advising to not do it basically, so I thought Id just wait patiently. Anyways like I mentioned I don't necessarily have a problem with waitlists not clearing-that's life. But when they are sending out sections 30%...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    I doubt many if any people would be relying soley on a waitlist to clear two weeks out without having made other arrangements? I had certainty-I had a mixture of business and economy flights booked 7 months out. Are you saying waitlist flights can appear in the two weeks prior to departure...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    I understand them wanting to wait to see if anyone buys the J class seats, but to cancel all waitlists two weeks out is just silly. Surely they could review the day of/ or the day before. Id imagine there wouldn't be a huge amount of full fare people buying first class/business class literally...

    Disappointed with Singapore Airlines

    Just wanted to share my recent disappointments with SIA. Where to start- -When trying to originally book flights there was no availability showing from Amsterdam to Australia, however when looking at the individual legs it showed availability. Long story short spent over an hour and a half...

    How long points refund?

    I've wait listed a million J flights about 7 months ago for a flight back from Europe in January, and booked a economy for what was all that was available. If I get lucky and get a wait list clear and cancel the economy how long before the points are in my account so that I can use them on the...
