My CC is still pending (looks like MH), and no ticketing yet either...

The weekend may slow things down. At least I hope that's why.


Sent from my iThing.
Why, because iCan.
 
Flyertalk is reporting the fare is dead again! Congrats to those that got fares ticketed!! Just remember your visa's! My preference for getting visa's is via BKK! Cheap hotels, Cheap beer, and same day Myanmar Visa's.. Sounds perfect to me!

It's all a bit of fun I guess, I have not participated in this particular game until last night, and I wasn't even going to bother but hey, what can I lose? Worst case I get a refund
 
I just realised i booked to go to Montreal in January, average high of -2C and average low of -10C. ouch! thats cold
 
I know this one is gone ... I got tix in Mark II ... but for future, when looking at multicity, what's the best way to go about it? Find availability through ITA then try it on a travel agent site? Just plug in random city pairs?
 
Finally received confirmations and e-tickets this morning, hurray. I could of booked a lot more but feel their is a moral side to it - I think the FT bunch turn into ravenous animals sometimes. Won't be going in a month either now, I figure the visa would be a rush and it's just plain cold over there, will wait for spring time! Since I couldn't book a return with the F segments, need to sort that one out too!

Depends on the type of error. This one I couldn't see any method besides plugging in different cities into various OTAs. Couldn't replicate the same booking on multiple sites either. Is that because it was a YY fare? Seems a lot more widespread this time. I still hold out hope that avoiding the SQ suites will make me a lesser target for cancellation, all part of the fun though.

Or maybe a SQ issued ticket would be better to have considering this quote:

"UAL Corp.'s United Airlines, Continental Airlines Inc., Southwest Airlines Co., JetBlue Airways Corp. and Singapore Airlines all
say their policy is to not cancel tickets even when a mistake is discovered, no
matter how large the error."

who knows

united has abandoned that as we saw with their 4 mile mistake fares. they said the original amount showed but was lowered to 4 miles on the payment page or something. they could do the same here (did anyone even get UA?)... if anyone selected business class, but was ticketed in first they could argue something.

unfortunately it would be very hard to use a newspaper article to hold a company to anything, unless you could show it was incorporated into their contract of sale. that's why the DOT has been a hugely positive step.

Selecting business the airline wouldn't even know, the fare is a F class fare, basis FIFOW3.

you know what I mean. if its not that then it could be anything else. all I was pointing out is that UA has walked away from a mistake, and there is nothing binding on any other airline that has made a public statement (unless of course you can argue its part of your contract)

All going well I will be there in July; 16-24c
Flights have just ticketed with IB although CC is still 'pending'.

SQ308 is codeshare with IB so I assume QF points and SCs? SQ won't let me access the booking, I have to do that through IB.

If it sticks ill be surprised but i thought id throw my hat in. I do know what you mean though.
