Agreed, im either to slow or something not right in the way I search. I just cant get those deals. I even heard there was QR deals to Japan sub 800Euro from BRU/AMS but I don't seem to see them...
but CMB/MLE is really what I wanted. anyone know any other way of doing it (OW)?

The Tokyo one, which I also got, was online for a day or so, if that, so on some fares, you need to be there to book it quick otherwise they just go.
I still think this MLE may still be bookable but on different dates. Have you tried to call Sri Lankan?

It has been told many many times that BA confirmed there was a mistake with the avios calculator for QR and that all R fares on QR offer the same avios and tier points regardless of business booking class

just trying to see whether this is really the best fare...I see lots like SOF-BKK for $800 etc so thought might be able to get a better deal...but I guess this must be as good as it gets. Also gets you BA Silver...
does anyone know how to book avios flights with air berlin? BAEC only gives me BA options...

so I managed to call Sri Lankan call center and booked in the end. However, after taking payment (3/4 attempts!!) they advised me they need to see a bank statement to show I have paid them so they can see the payment is genuine...
Anyone else had the same experience...? Should I be sending credit card statements?

Send them the first page of your credit card statement where it shows your name and address then cross out your balance/card number/interest, etc, it did work for me with QR.

ok im glad im not the only one :-) UK Foreign office advice does say cc fraud is biggest crime in Sri Lanka...
Out of interest if I hope it doesn't cause an issue, because I have three different transactions because one pax is leaving early and two other went up in price...butall paid by one person.
They said as long as you check in together on the outbound but hoping no issues for the inbound flight since I wont be with them for that flight....

I don't think they will have problems. QR says that if you don't send them a copy of your statement, they would require you to show the credit card you used at check-in so I believe with UL the same thing would happen, better to send them a copy (with all the main info but the address redacted).

Are you able to adjust your seats with QR manage my booking because I used Sri Lankan but after chosing seats it doesnt appear to save it...

QR did this with me for the Saké fare I booked recently, bit of a faff but did it anyway.
I hope this price stays around into next year too as I have no Annual Leave left till Next year now and looks like fare rules dictate a 2017 date only

There are two PNRs (one for UL and one for QR), use the QR one on QR's manage my booking and you will be able to select seats there with no issues.
