I am thinking it will probably be best to go with the time tested tradition of MLK weekend. People book early (in fact have done so again this year) on the assumption that that is the weekend.
Hope everyone can make it.

When's this MLK weekend thingy?
I have to join my parents in Osaka for a few days. Wouldn't mind stretching out my budget a little for a few nights' stopover in SIN for SIN Run. Might even do a seperate trip if the 2 don't coincide - never been to something like that before so I'm pretty keen.

Would it matter less if I'm only looking for fares with 100% accrual rates on M+M?
