Was it me?
Since BA abandoned Bangkok I tried to book Thai Air SIN-BKK return. Now maybe their website doesn't play nice with my iPad but when presented with the proverbial three business fare choices after selecting a flight the three choices showed ascending prices but none of them said 'business lite', 'business flex' or the like and nowhere did I see an explanation of the differences. Their loss, I booked Singapore Airlines. Very strange.

Using iPad on TGs website can be flakey. I often need to rotate mine to portrait (awkwardly) so all options show properly. 🤷‍♂️

My iPhone and iPad are TG friendly so I've never had an issue reserving on TG website (and there's also an app for that). 😁

Who cares about the website, I prefer SQ for the better hard and soft product.

But would you prefer SQ Y over TG using GUP into J?

I have this dilemma to travel with a family member. They will be in Y and my GUP is expiring.
