Spent most of the morning with friends from Sydney organising tickets for 2 adults and 2 children to Dubai from Sydney return. IN ECONOMY!!!! After ringing me to ask for confirmation with disbelief at the disparity in prices!!
Emirates Airlines 17200 Australian Dollars 1 stop via BKK 1.5 hour turnaround both ways.
Cathay Pacific 12100 Australian Dollars 1 stop via HKG 3 hour turnaround both ways
Thai Airways 8300 Australian Dollars 1 stop via BKK 8 hour turnaroun on way back 2 hour turnaround way out.
Singapore Airlines 7100 Australian Dollars 1 stop via SIN 2 hour turnarounds both ways.
Who the F@#K do EK think they are. Singapore used to be my airline of choice to travel anyway and told my friends it is obviously a no brainer even if the prices were the same Singapore would still be the number 1 choice!
Has EKs arrogance now led them to believe that they can supply a service that warrants tickets prices double to that of their main rivals with an inferior product!
That
PR BS spin sure has millions of people hoodwinked
