Hi.

BHX-TYO on SQ for GBP 800 is DEFINITELY not in Business Class. I'd ask what the booking class is on SQ before I get all excited about this. Considering the LHR-SIN-LHR sector alone is about GBP500+ return in economy! Especially around Easter.

Unless you're on either C, Z or D class , you'd not in Business Class.
Should the above be in economy class, I'd still ask them what the booking class is as some economy class tickets do not earn any miles.

Great fares can be had in England not by the 'right' consolidator, but rather by how much of a volume in sales they do with SQ. The larger the consolidator, so the larger sales volume they would do with the airlines. Hence the large consolidators would have the best fares. ie Trailfinders, Travelmood etc. You might find specialised agencies that specifically sell volume tickets on certain airlines only... but chances are these are mainly for economy class fares.
