lopburi3 Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 The unrestricted price for one way economy travel on that flight is 44,435 baht! Most of us never use that type of ticket (for obvious reasons). The web site show openings and offers the restricted fare of 16,120 so you might try to book online with local pickup/pay.

Torneyboy Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 suadum said:"Why leave it so late...you are like all my clients...do not plan ahead and wonder why the cost is so high" My business requires that I travel on a moments notice. When a customer is in trouble, they expect me to be there ASAP to "put out the fire." But it is also my responsibility to try to keep costs down for them as much as possible. That makes them happy and results in repeat business . This one is odd that the came on a Saturday. Usually, such problems arise M-F and I can deal with that. The real bitch of it is that if he would have called me 12 hours earlier, I was in Perth! "Or...your hotel travel/concierge desk...they have connections..have had to use them myself " Awww, TB, dontcha pay attention? I live in Bangers so I do not have access to any of those (I am not staying a hotel/condo, that is). Cheers M8, SD Ok if you are travelling a lot..why don''t you have a regular agent? We have corporate clients that need to move asap as well. We take it in turns of being on call 24/7...email comes in or a call and we action it and make pax apt tickets or e ticket if can be done. Ask you local guy to set up an after hours service for just this event Enjoy cold wet and windy Melbourne btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted February 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 I did finally get my ticket this afternoon, through my usual agent. Not without some fretting and worrying tho'. Now wish me luck that I get my Biz Class upgrade since I am told the flight is full . "We have corporate clients that need to move asap as well. We take it in turns of being on call 24/7...email comes in or a call and we action it and make pax apt tickets or e ticket if can be done. Ask you local guy to set up an after hours service for just this event" LOL! You mistakenly assume that there is such a thing as customer service here in Bangers . I think that my normal agent will be OK, now that I got her to handle this. I don't think Melbourne is all that bad in small doses...

Guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 TB, March 6th Mardi Gras (Sydney) or March 7th Grand Prix (Melbourne) I think the GP would win on most cases... C'mon you can't be that 'biased' to Sydney over Melbourne.... SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Why leave it so late...you are like all my clients...do not plan ahead and wonder why the cost is so high Aah, TB, the joys of being in a service-related industry. As I like to tell our users, sorry, customers : a lack of planning on your part does NOT constitute an emergency on mine. We re-prioritise requests for assistance constantly, but the word 'Urgent' seems to have become a little too common in IT, leading certain inventive types to add asterisks and assorted other grammatical additions to indicate the extent of their pain. My personal favourite is '** Super Urgent ** !!!!' : they immediately go to the end of the queue. :: OK- I'd better get back to work :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobbledonk Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 LOL ! I can picture the scene in the TA's office ! The only place where I've ever been able to get away with something like that was in Shenzhen - arrived breathless at the Southern China Airlines desk asking 'When's the next plane to Nanning ? I have to get there today !'. They had every right to laugh, but they calmly took my passport and the cash and issued me a ticket. The subsequent sprint to the departure lounge was something else, but it all worked out in the end :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
