Anyone stuck booking through the official website pending ticketing?
"We've reserved your seats while we check your payment details, and we'll send your tickets when the payment is approved. We'll email you in the next 6 hours, so you don't need to make another booking."

Major thanks, OP!

I had perfected my itinerary and had my second PEN-SIN-DXB-SIN-DXB-SIN-PEN priced up (two short connections in DXB with 24 hours in SIN between) when it was pulled. Should have just pulled the trigger but thought I'd try to see if the previous day was available then it disappeared. Being offered CD for my 24 hours in SIN too which is hilarious.

Now we wait...
