Just seen the new website.
Ive been trying to get prices for a MAN-MRU trip for July to August and whereas I usually have no problems I am getting increasingly frustrated.
After option 2 or 3 which give ridiculous transit times of 10 to 14.5 hours in DXB (and no options for my usual 3 hour stopover at all) the price goes up by around £200, still with stupid transit times.
When I carry on they give me an outbound business class fare and inbound Y for £1800.
I ticked Y not J.
Out of curiosity I tried several dates throughout the year and a lot of months showed no availablity or ridiculous transit times as said before.
I saw others on Tripadvisor saying the same thing - whole months no availablity or coming up with J class fares.
What is going on?
No way will I pay hundreds more for the privilege of 14.5 hour transits when I usually have 2.5-3 hours.
Thanks!
Not sure about the new website either.
