So this is why when i checked a business class flight from Man to BKK for September last night it had gone up from Ł1,880 on Sunday night to Ł2,800 on Tuesday night, just so they can bring it down to Ł1,970 today and claim a sale price cut of 30%.

Book MAN-CAI on TK for about Ł800 and then EY CAI-BKK for Ł645 rt Less than 1500 all-in. Save another 20%.

I too have been looking at MAN-BKK and the prices have gone up not down since the last time I looked several days ago.

When I saw there was a sale on I thought the right price may tempt me back after I ditched them due to the removal of the chauffeur on promotional fares.

Do you have the exact dates for this flight. I assume all is in business.

All business, I used dates in May as a reference.

Actually, I see CAI-BKK as low as Ł503 rt in EY biz.

Checked DME-AUH-DME for my dad and right now it's about $300-350 cheaper than it was a week or so ago.

However, they cut back the service to twice daily and will not put 787 on it as planned so that sucks as I was looking forward to treating him to new F on this route (http://airlineroute.net/2015/02/23/ey-dme-s15/).

If you register for the double miles dont forget to take down the reference number that is returned. It disappears off the screen after 5 seconds though!

I saw the ref number, but didn't have the possibility to write it down, however when I retry, I get a message that my guest number already has been registered, so I assume should be ok?

If you press the Back button on your browser, you should see the confirmation page again (for a few seconds, of course, so be quick!). If that fails, I believe the confirmation page has confirmation number in the URL so if you look through your browser history, it may be there.

But having a screencap would be much better just in case EY system fails.

Nice find, just looked at some dates for me and the wife and at the current exchange rates two of us can fly AMS-BKK for over 50% less than MAN-BKK.

Is there any way to get a MAN-AMS flight with KLM on the same ticket with the Etihad flights?

Sale extended, but probably last chance to register for double miles.
