Should I?
This is crazy.British Airways:
LHR (20/06/07, 2215) -> HKG (21/06/07, 1710)
HKG (04/09/07, 0035) -> LHR (04/09/07, 0635)
£369.30 (S$1107.90) incl. tax!
Should I book it?!?! Offer till 23/01/2007.
Perfect connection timings anyway. If I stopover in Hong Kong for 1 night (to have dinner/lunch with Aunt/Uncle/Cousins etc.), and go back home with JetStar Asia (only problem is their 20kg allowance, but can always carry books in my backpack), non-discounted price = HK$1558 (S$311.60). Return. When going back to the US I will need to enter Hong Kong and recheck-in, but with my HKID, that's not a problem at all.
If I can, problem reduced to the BWI <-> LHR flight. Just need to check the BA website everyday for promotions, and I will have a chance of only paying S$2111 (i.e. S$11.00) for everything. How exciting is that?!
(Even if I cannot get a cheap BA228/BA229 direct flight, and if I have to change airline (meaning recheck-in), with my GBR passport, it is not excessively irritating. Or I will just pay S$2600 altogether, which is normal anyway, whichever way I fly...)
