Gatehouse, Stokesay Castle, Craven Arms, Shropshire
Four weeks from Thursday we will be on our way to the UK for a 6 week holiday. This is our 11th trip to the UK - I love the history, countryside, historical buildings. We have been to many places, but still so much more to see.
The gloss of our excitement has been taken away by Singapore Airlines. In April we booked two Premium Economy tickets with Singapore Airlines, which cost $9,400 AUD. Around 3 or 4 weeks ago we received an email from Singapore Airlines saying that due to unforeseen circumstances, we had been downgraded to economy from Singapore to Sydney for our return journey. Peter was so angry but worse was to come. We have now been downgraded to economy from Heathrow to Sydney. The price of tickets has gone through the roof for economy tickets which now cost over $9,000 AUD return for 2 people. We think they are just trying to make more money and there is nothing we can do about it as they have already sold our seats probably for a huge amount. No refund as airfares are now over $9,000 AUD just for economy seats. So unfair Singapore Airlines!!!!! On top of that the price of car hire has also doubled. We have paid for our accommodation and would lose too much if we cancelled the trip so we just have wear the extra expense. We are still determined to have a good time.
