  • The 2-4-1 fare is not based on the cheapest promotional economy fare that you will likely see if you search for one person. It's based on one of the more expensive economy buckets, which is offered alongside other fare options when you make a normal booking.

    Just because it was related to an offer doesn't make it suitable to be posted on the grabbit board. If this is the only board in the entire 80-odd that people look at then it's their fault if they miss something, IMO :)

    Sorry but i work 40+ hours a week and have a family, would love to have time to read ALL the boards but time does not allow so i read the boards that are of interest to me. If nothing else this coulld have been tagged at the end of the original post IMO :)

    As this post has already been moved then i guess others disagree but i still think this is a mistake, and other posts show the same

    If the way you want was to be in effect, the grabbit board would be less than useless as you could use your reasoning to say that any post could go there.
    It needs to be kept for short-term deals otherwise it is useless.

    Agree with what you say that not everything should be posted in the Grabbit thread but this was a direct warning to an earlier post. If you read the replies you can see it affected several people, as i stated it could have been tagged to the original post but the warning was important. I am sure there are many out there like me lead busy lives and so do not have time to read all forums. As such i feel that if a deal is posted and someone discovers a reason to check or avoid the deal it should be mentioned in the same forum so as to make people aware.
