Will fare to Singapore go up??

Still trying to get a good fare to go to singapore. Have a fare of £734 but that expires tonight, is August peak or i guess it depends on load factors?:confused: Going from LHR 31/7, back around 15/8. This fare is with emirates, good times and short wait at dubai. Any advice would be appreciated.

    I presume you're using kayak.co.uk to get the best price? To be fair prices have really rocketed recently. I was wanting to book early July and was getting £448 - now nothing below £569 - but even that I've seen creep beyond £650 - that's from Birmingham

    I have just booked with singapore airlines to australia and we was lucky the prices had come down when we booked it last week but as far as i have seen they are likely to go back up soon.

    Have you tried singapore airlines for a direct flight?

    Best fare to Singapore is probably going to be airasia.com, if you can cope with budget long haul.

    London > Kuala Lumpur > Singapore

    I can give you a definite maybe on the original question. But why bother: there are plenty of shopping centres here in England?

    Did the OP say he was going to Singapore to go shopping?

    No, but that's about all there is to do there. Apart from getting the ferry to Indonesia, or crossing the causeway to Malaysia.

    Better not to assume.
