Qantas SYD&MEL to SIN $510 ret ($410 through .br site)

[feezable]

I am sitting in my hotel room in sgn with my 12yr old son, taking him on his first Asian adventure. All thanks to these fares, I am so grateful for aff.

Some interesting PE and J fares in the mix.

This thread is so useful, thanks to everyone for sharing. Did anyone manage to get the hotel in the mix with PE and J fares? When I tried, it seemed to default back to discount economy fare. Thanks.

I might be doing something wrong but can/how I do Mel-sin cup weekend, 1 night hotel stay then return say 6 months out?

Already have the return booked from an earlier.br fare.

Might even be cheesier to do Mel-per-sin?!

ISTR that when you specify you want hotel+voo it tells you the maximum stay away is 26 nights.

Yep, worked that out after. I was seeing fly over on the Sautrday then come back Sunday or Monday with a stay at Crowne Plaza for under $600... Unfortunately doesn't suit me

At the time I did not realise they were also on sale, so its around $110 for PE and $2600 in J .

PER-SIN 18 April, SIN-PER 29 April, ~ AUD2500 in J.

Nice, thanks Danger! Pity I can't get it to give me options for CGK... I've tried it from MEL & SYD, and various dates, but nothing! I'm due their in March.

I have the same problem. The search from the packages screen only offers discount Y, so I tried on the results page after searching a W fare. It then goes back to discount Y so the hotel trick only works for Y-. Oh well, $450 for SYD-SIN rt is a bargain. I can just cross fingers for a points upgrade for QF6.

Given its a non up-gradable bucket, you will need more than fingers crossed!

How about flying MEL-SIN return in J for about $2600 and then getting JQ connections SIN-CGK which are about $50 per way ?

Yeah this is an option.. I'd love a cheap J deal flying SYD-CGK... but MEL-SIN-CGK isn't too bad either!!

New Singapore sale just started so imagine tomorrow prices may drop further

 

[Danger]

I booked a PER-SIN-PER in the last sale in O. It's now about $150 cheaper.

Does anyone have experience with cancelling an O booking with .br? Is the penalty the same as doing it on a booking made with QF (ie. about $80)? After seeing a thread saying the PER-SIN had been re-timed I was hoping to use the "the new schedule doesn't suit me" trick for a full refund but it seems the re-time ends in March, thereafter returning to the regular departure time.

Nope, that sale was effective Saturday which is why the cheapies are back yesterday.

Arrghhh! Can someone help me decide? $785 rt for PE or $430 rt for Economy?

I gave up trying to speak to someone in English!

I had to make a change on a booking and the first agent I spoke with spoke fluent English and was amazingly helpful, all changed in one call of about 10 minutes! I was dreading the call but must have got lucky!

How are you getting $785 for PE?
