    $240 return from Adelaide in April. Honestly I'd probably never book any flight packages/deals from Scoopon, seems like such a hassle having to go through a third party.

    My zero-star $27 booking in a roach-infested hostel puts the Four Seasons to shame. Regardless of hotel brand/rating. God…the logic of people sometimes ;)

        It is a bargain for a full service airline; I'd rank Malaysian up there as one of the best.

        So paying $400+ more for a meal is worth it? What does full service really get you?

        @Keef
        Are you gonna at least share which carrier you bought with?
        You do have a point to an extent. I agree that $400+ for food and just flying a full service carrier isn't worth it, but just because you paid $300 with whatever carrier you bought with doesn't mean this isn't bargain.
        If your objective is to get from A to B for the cheapest price possible then of course full service is not worth it.
        Also keep in mind - you may have got it for $300, but would you be able to get it for $300 now even if you wanted to?

        Airasia. Paid an extra $30 for an extra seat in between me and my travel partner. Bought a couple of meals and the flight all up wouldn't have cost me more than $400 total. I have flown with many carriers before and honestly was more comfortable on that flight than any previous. Don't be fooled by the full service thing. It's just a flight and it's not a hotel. Each to their own though. I just don't see $700+ for a return flight to Malaysia as a bargain. Others do and thats fine.

        I see your point. If you want a cheap flight though, I would avoid this scoopon deal and wait for the next flight bargain posted here that should be coined as such. Unless you want to pay $400 for full service :)

        Well certainly like I said I agree $400+ for meals + entertainment is not worth it, but the reality is the difference in price if you were to purchase NOW.
        The difference might now be about $100, which I would say is definitely worth it considering most people will buy some food and baggage.

        You can pay $30 to have an empty seat between you on AirAsia? Really? Is this only if the flight is not full? What is the catch?

      • 

        Keef on 08/08/2013 - 14:40

        If its full you don't get it. I don't like sharing these secrets but its called "optiontown"

      • 

        r3volt on 08/08/2013 - 15:10

        The catch is, If the flights not full and you don't ask you will most likely get a free seat next to you anyway without paying the $30.

      • 

        Keef on 08/08/2013 - 16:12

        Most likely is not guarantee, if the flight is full I'd pay $30 for that guarantee.
        Especially seeing I only paid $300 for the flight to begin with.

        Even better is to go for the business class upgrade for $160 and stretch your legs out on that lie-flat bed! Yes, both of these options are not guaranteed but they refund most of your money if you don't get them.

  I HATE scoopon!
  Bought a deal once, the company offering would never let me book, told Scoopon, they did nothing about it. So paid for the deal and got nothing.

  Get on a kayak deal like this $728, book direct. I took a random date for $728, maybe cheaper at other times.
  Select all airlines for the best price (I selected Malaysia).

  (You can add other destinations into the KUL box for a multi search if you know the airport codes)

  I think this is quite a good price if you can get a flight during the booking period. I don't think flights to Malaysia on a full service airline are usually that cheap during Chinese New Year.

  That being said, normally full service airlines will give you a discount on child fares, usually about 75% of adult fares, which is not applicable in this deal. Also, over the past 5 years or so, Malaysian Airlines has been undergoing budget cuts because of lack of profitability and trying to compete with Air Asia. I am not sure how "full-service" Malaysia Airlines is now.

  If you don't like scoopon deal, just search flight from expedia.com.br ex MEL to KUL.
  I just found Total: R$1.129,81 =A$541 (it's return flight all tax and fees inclusive) dep:22 Oct 13 return:29 Oct 13. It's QF flight but operated by EMIRATES….
  You just need to know where to look at for bargain deals….
  good luck.

  Would love to sit MAS but able to secured AirAsia ticket for Chinese New Year period about $450 return.

  Expedia.br has caught on :(

  It says 'includes all fees and taxes', then at the final checkout, bam! a large tax is added!

  Has anyone tried flightcentre? I believe they have a price beat (but only by $1) policy on same flights by a ".com.au" company.

  Worth a call and show them this deal. IF they can match / beat it by $1, then I'd go with them..

  Might be some other conditions..But Just a thought.. {Hmm… tempted to do it myself }
